Where the songs of all the sinless,

Sweep across the crystal sea.

Alleluia! King eternal,

Thee the Lord of lords we own:

Alleluia! born of Mary,

Earth thy footstool, heav’n thy throne:

Thou within the veil hast entered,

Robed in flesh, our great High Priest:

Thou on earth both Priest and Victim

In the eucharistic feast.
