German:
Herr Christ, der ein'ge Gottes Sohn,
Vaters in Ewigkeit
Aus seinem Herz'n entsprossen,
Gleich wie geschrieben steht,
Er ist der Morgensterne,
Sein'n Glanz streckt er so ferne
Vor andern Sternen klar.
--Elisabeth Creutziger, 1524
English:
O Thou, of God the Father,
The true Eternal Son,
Of whom 'tis surely written,
That Thou with Him art one,
Thou art the bright and morning star,
Beyond all other radiance
Thy glory streams afar.
--Tr. C. Winkworth
