1 Great power is in the beam of light, sing praise to God, whom men have set in foremost place like the Friend with their eulogies.

2 He by the splendour of His arms is Priest of every able man. He conveys the gift straight, and deals, as the Bountiful deals, His boons.

3 All rests upon the laud and love of Him the rich, high-flaming God, on whom, loud-roaring, men have laid great strength as on a faithful friend.

4 So, O God, be the Friend of these with liberal gift of hero strength. Yea, heaven and earth have not surpassed this Youthful One in glorious fame.

5 O God, quickly come to us, and, glorified, bring precious wealth. So we and these our princes will assemble for the good of all. Be near in fight to prosper us.
