The sun still chaunts as in old time | B |

With brother spheres in choral song | C |
And with his thunder march sublime | B |

Moves his predestined course along | C |
Strength find the angels in his sight | D |

Though he by none may fathomed be | E |
Still glorious is each work of might | D |

As when first form'd in majesty | E |

GABRIEL | F |
- | |
And swift and swift in wondrous guise | G |

Revolves the earth in splendour bright | D |
The radiant hues of Paradise | H |

Alternating with deepest night | D |
From out the gulf against the rock | I |

In spreading billows foams the ocean | J |
And cliff and sea with mighty shock | I |
- | |
The spheres whirl round in endless motion | J |

MICHAEL | F |

And storms in emulation growl | K |

From land to sea from sea to land | L |
And fashion as they wildly howl | K |

A circling wonder working band | L |
Destructive flames in mad career | M |
- | |
Precede Thy thunders on their way | N |
Yet Lord Thy messengers revere | M |
- | |
The soft mutations of Thy day | N |

THE THREE | E |

Strength find the angels in Thy sight | D |
- | |
Though none may hope to fathom Thee | E |
Still glorious are Thy works of might | D |
- | |
As when first form'd in majesty | E |
