Питер Кристиан Луткин - Vox aeterna - ноты, текст песни (слова)

1. Hark! the voice eternal,
 Robed in majesty,
 Caging into being
 Earth and sea and sky
 Hark! in countless numbers
 All the angel-throng
 Hail creation's morning
 With one burst of song.
 High in regal glory,
 'Mid eternal light,
 Reign, O King immortal,
 Holy, infinite. 
 
 2. Bright the world and glorious,
 Calm both earth and sea,
 Noble in its grandeur
 Stood man's purity;
 Came the great transgression,
 Came the saddening fall,
 Death and desolation
 Breathing over all.
 Still in regal glory,
 'Mid eternal light,
 Reigned the King immortal,
 Holy, infinite. 
 
 3. Long the nations waited,
 Through the troubled night,
 Looking, longing, yearning,
 For the promised light.
 Prophets saw the morning
 Breaking far away,
 Minstrels sang the splendour
 Of that opening day;
 Whilst in regal glory,
 'Mid eternal light,
 Reigned the King immortal,
 Holy, infinite. 
 
 4. Brightly dawned the Advent
 Of the newborn King,
 Joyously the watchers
 Heard the angels sing.
 Sadly closed the evening
 Of his hallowed life,
 As the noontide darkness
 Veiled the last dread strife
 Lo! again in glory,
 'Mid eternal light,
 Reigns the King immortal,
 Holy, infinite. 
 
 5. Lo! again he cometh,
 Robed in clouds of fight,
 As the Judge eternal,
 Armed with power and might.
 Nations to his footstool
 Gathered then shall be;
 Earth shall yield her treasures,
 And her dead, the sea.
 Till the trumpet soundeth,
 'Mid eternal light
 Reign, thou King immortal,
 Holy, infinite. 
 
 6. Jesus! Lord and Master,
 Prophet, Priest, and King,
 To thy feet, triumphant,
 Hallowed praise we bring.
 Thine the pain and weeping,
 Thine the victory;
 Power, and praise, and honour,
 Be, O Lord, to thee.
 High in regal glory,
 'Mid eternal light,
 Reign, O King immortal,
 Holy, infinite.
 Amen.
