In Praise of Jesus the Life-Giver

The light of your face is life indestructible
You extinguish the darkness of the craftsman’s wraith
Through secrets in your eyes that are unspeakable

No one will be able to receive without faith 
No one will be able to give without pure love 
Through receiving these by both your hands we are safe

The dark rulers will not rule the holy above
We have received ten thousand times undying grace 
Through your body being risen like a white dove

The gospel is joy for those who know the father’s face
The gospel is the pure revelation of hope 
Through receiving it by your mouth that we embrace
