Songs of thankfulness and praise, Jesus, Lord to you we raise;
Manifested by the star to the sages from afar.
Branch of royal David's stem in thy birth at Bethlehem,
Anthems be to thee addressed, God in flesh made manifest.
Manifest at Jordan's stream, prophet, priest, and king supreme;
And at Cana, wedding guest, in thy Godhead manifest.
Manifest in power divine, changing water into wine,
Anthems be to thee addressed, God in flesh made manifest.
Manifest in making whole palsied limbs and wounded soul,
Manifest in valiant fight, quelling all the devil's might.
Manifest in gracious will, ever bringing good from ill,
Anthems be to thee addressed, God in flesh made manifest.
Manifest on mountain height, radiant in resplendent light;
As disciples filled with awe, thy transfigured glory saw.
Whence from there thou leddest them steadfast to Jerusalem,
Cross and Easter day attest God in flesh made manifest.
