English Powerful ruler, true God, Who steers the changing of all things, By the splendor of the morning light You beckon forth the mid-day sun.
And douse foul hatred’s heat. Confer on us health of body And to our hearts true peace.
And You who alone are his equal Who with the Spirit Paraclete Reigns forever and ever, Amen. |
