O Gladsome light of the holy glory, of the Immortal Father,

Heavenly, holy, blessed, Jesus Christ.

As we approach the setting of the sun, and see the evening light,

We hymn Thee, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, God.

Meet it is at all times for Thee to be praised by peaceful voices,

O Son of God, the Giver of life. Wherefore the world glorifies Thee.
