1. Songs of thankfulness and praise,

Jesu, Lord, to Thee 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 Man made manifest.

2. 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 Man made manifest.

5. Grant us grace to see Thee, Lord,

Mirrored in thy holy Word;

May we imitate Thee now,

And be pure as pure art Thou;

That we like to Thee may be

At thy great Epiphany.

And may praise Thee, ever blest,

God in Man made manifest.
