Verbe, égal au Très-Haut, notre unique espérance,
Jour éternel de la terre et des cieux ;
De la paisible nuit nous rompons le silence,
Divin Sauveur, jette sur nous les yeux !

Répands sur nous le feu de ta grâce puissante,
Que tout l'enfer fuie au son de ta voix ;
Dissipe le sommeil d'une âme languissante,
Qui la conduit à l'oubli de tes lois !

O Christ, sois favorable à ce peuple fidèle
Pour te bénir maintenant rassemblé.
Reçois les chants qu'il offre à ta gloire immortelle,
Et de tes dons qu'il retourne comblé !

Let all Hell flee at the sound of Thy voice.

Woord dat gelijk is aan de Allerhoogste, onze enige hoop
Eeuwig daglicht van aarde en hemelen
Vanuit de vredige nacht verbreken we de stilte
Goddelijke Verlosser, richt Uw blik op ons.

Verspreid onder ons het vuur van Uw machtige genade
Opdat de hel vluchte bij het horen van uw stem
Verjaag de slaap van een kwijnende ziel,
die haar Uw wetten doet vergeten

O Christus, wees het trouwe volk welgezind
Dat nu bijeen is om U te loven
Ontvang de liederen die het aanbiedt
Ter ere van Uw onsterfelijke glorie en Uw gaven
Opdat het weer gelukkig wordt.

Wort aus Gott vor der Zeit, du Anfang ohne Ende,

zum Lobpreis deiner Macht erheben wir die Hände,
vor dessen Größe alles Sein erbebt.

Ergieß auf uns das Feuer der göttlichen Gnade,
dass Nacht und Schuld vor deiner Stimme fliehn,
und lass nicht zu, dass wir, verirrt auf dunklem Pfade,
uns deinem heiligen Willen entziehn.

Du Quelle aller Weisheit, schenk Liebe und Glauben,
wenn wir vereint deine Gaben erflehn,
und was uns eigne Torheit und Herzenshärte rauben,
