You who brought all things to life, alleluia,

Word that came from heav’n to die, alleluia,

Speak to us, eternal Word.

Speak and heal our mortal ills, alleluia,

Word that caused blind eyes to see, alleluia,

Deaf we are, our healer be, alleluia,

Speak and heal our mortal ills.

Word made flesh, we long for you, alleluia,

Word that speaks the Father’s love, alleluia,

Word that sends the Spirit blest, alleluia,

Word made flesh, we long for you.
