about

The lyrics to this song were taken from a 9th century Latin hymn. One time, I was playing a tune in the chapel, and Cathy jumped in and started singing a melody with these much-loved lyrics.

lyrics

Cathy:
Creator of the stars of night
Your peoples everlasting light
Lord Jesus savior of us all
Now hear your servants when they call

Brenna:
Our father heard the helpless cry
Of all creation doomed to die
And saved our lost and guilty race
By healing gifts of heavenly grace

Cathy:
While earth was near its evening hour
You did in love’s redeeming power
Like bridegroom, from his chamber, come
Forth from a maiden mother’s womb

Brenna:
At your great name exalted now
All knees should bend, all head’s should bow
All things in heaven and earth adore
And praise you King forever more

Cathy):
To you, O Holy one we pray
Our judge in that tremendous day
Ward off while yet we dwell below
The weapons of our crafty foe

Brenna:
To God the Father, God the Son
And God the Spirit, three in one
Praise, honor, might, and glory be
From age to age eternally

Together:
To God my Father and the Son
Who with the Spirit makes us one
From age to age eternally
Praise honor might and glory be

Creator of the stars of night
