alpha et O cognominatus,
ipse fons et clausula
omnium quae sunt, fuerunt,
quaeque post futura sunt.

ere the worlds began to be,
He is Alpha and Omega,
He the source, the ending He,
of the things that are, that have been,
and that future years shall see.

Verse 2

At His word the worlds were framèd;
He commanded; it was done:
Heaven and earth and depths of ocean
in their three-fold order one;
all that grows beneath the shining
of the moon and burning sun.

O that birth for ever blessèd,
when the Virgin, full of grace,
by the Holy Ghost conceiving,
bare the Saviour of our race,
and the Babe, the world's Redeemer,
first revealed His sacred face.

Verse 4

This is He whom seers in old time
chanting sang with one accord,
whom the voices of the prophets
promised in their faithful word;
now He shines, the long-expected;
let creation praise its Lord.
