歌词与中文翻译
Let all mortal flesh keep silence,
就让终有一死的凡人沉默，
And with fear and trembling stand;
带着敬畏颤抖地侍立一旁；
Ponder nothing earthly minded,
以超凡尘世的头脑沉思着，
For with blessing in His hand,
与他手握的赐福同在，
Christ our God to earth descending
吾主基督降临尘世，
Comes our homage to demand.
接受万物生灵的崇拜。
King of kings, yet born of Mary,
王中之王，圣母玛丽之子
As of old on earth He stood,
世界诞生之时他已然站立；
Lord of lords, in human vesture,
主中之主，身披人类衣裳，
In the body and the blood;
宿于相同的身体，流淌相同的血液；
He will give to all the faithful
仁慈啊，将自身血肉
His own self for heavenly food.
赐予忠实的信徒们以血食；
Rank on rank the host of heaven
等而上之，天堂之主
Spreads its vanguard on the way,
在圣途上遣出先驱，
As the Light of light descendeth
当原初的第一束光芒
From the realms of endless day,
从永恒的领域，不朽的的王国中降临，
Comes the powers of hell to vanquish
征服了地狱的力量
As the darkness clears away.
一切黑暗都被扫除。
At His feet the six winged seraph,
六翼的炽天使，不眠的智天使
Cherubim with sleepless eye,
皆拜倒在他的足下，
Veil their faces to the presence,
以面纱遮住面庞的他们
As with ceaseless voice they cry:
以永无休止之音高唱：
Alleluia, Alleluia
哈利路亚，哈利路亚
Alleluia, Lord Most High!
哈利路亚，吾主至高！
