1 The Radiant One is Priest, the great High Priest of worship, most swift in act:

He knows the rite in constant course.

2 Bearer of gifts, deathless, well inclined, an eager messenger,

The Radiant One comes nigh us with the thought.

3 Ensign of worship from of old, the Radiant One well knoweth with His thought

To prosper this man's aim and hope.

4 The Radiant One, illustrious from old time, the Son of Strength who knows all life,

The angels have made their Priest.

5 Infallible is He who goes before the tribes of men,

A chariot swift and ever new.

6 Strength of the angels which none may harm, subduing all His enemies,

He is mightiest in fame.

7 By offering sacred food for His sake the mortal worshipper obtains

A home from Him whose light makes pure.

8 From Him, by our hymns, may we gain all things that bring happiness,

Singers of Him who knows all life.

9 O God, in our deeds of might may we obtain all precious things:

The angels all serve Thee.
