Lyrics:
O Gracious Light,
pure brightness of the everliving Father in heaven,
O Jesus Christ, holy and blessed!
Now as we come to the setting of the sun,
and our eyes behold the vesper light,
we sing Thy praises O God:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Thou art worthy at all times to be praised by happy voices,
O Son of God, O giver of life,
and to be glorified through all the worlds.
