Patris aeterni suboles coaeva.

O WORD of God above,
Who fillest all in all,
Hallow this house with thy sure love,
And bless our festival

2 Grace in this font is stored
To cleanse each guilty child;
The Spirits blest anointing poured
Brightens the once defiled.

3 Here Christ of his own Blood
Himself the chalice gives,
And feeds his own with Angels’ food,
On which the spirit lives

4 For guilty souls that pine
Sure mercies here abound,
And healing grace with oil and wine
For every secret wound.

5 God from his throne afar,
Comes in this house to dwell;
And prayer, beyond the evening star,
Builds here her citadel.

Unison. 6. All might, all praise be thine,
The God whom all adore;
The Father, Son, and Spirit divine,
Both now and evermore. Amen.
