Cantique de Jean Racine

Everlasting light of Heaven and Earth, we break the silence of the peaceful night.
jour eternal, de la terre et des cieux de la paisible nuit nous rompons le silence.
Savior Divine, cast thine eyes upon us now gathered here to praise thee.
Divin Sauveur, jette sur nous les yeux. Pour te benir maintenant rassemble
O Christ, look with favour on the faithful people
O Christ, sois favorable a ce people fidele:
may they go forth filled with thy gifts.
Et de tes dons qu’il retourne comble!
Receive the hymns offered to thy endless glory
Recois les chants qu’il offre a ta gloire immortelle
Pour on us the fire of thy mighty grace
Repans sur nous le feude ta grace puissante,
that all hell my flee at the sound of thy voice
Que tout l’enfer fuie au son de ta voix:
