To manifest thyself to men,

Hast set thine image in thy Son.

2Though Jews, who granted not his claim,

Contemptuous turned away their face,

Yet those who trusted in his name

Beheld in him thy truth and grace.

3O thou! at whose almighty word

Fair light at first from darkness shone,

Teach us to know our glorious Lord,

And trace the Father in the Son.
