Down in adoration falling,
Lo! the sacred host we hail;
Lo! o'er ancient forms departing,
newer rites of graces prevail;
faith for all defects supplying,
where the feeble senses fail.
To the everlasting Father,
and the Son, who reigns on high,
with the Holy Spirit proceeding
forth from each eternally,
be salvation, honor, blessing,
might and endless majesty.
Amen.
