On this day, the first of days
(GOTT SEI DANK. 7.7.7.7)
1.
On this day, the first of days,
God the Father's name we praise,
Who, creation’s Lord and spring,
Did the world from darkness bring.
2.
On this day the eternal Son
Over death his triumph won;
On this day the Spirit came
With its gifts of living flame.
3.
Word-made-flesh, all praises be!
You from sin have set us free;
And with you we die and rise
Unto God in sacrifice.
4.
Holy Spirit, you impart
Gifts of love to ev'ry heart;
Give us light and grace, we pray;
Fill our hearts this holy day.
5.
God, the blessed Three in One,
May your holy will be done;
In your word our souls are free,
As we praise the Trinity.
