​let all mortal flesh keep silence

[Verse 1]
Let all mortal flesh keep silence
And with fear and trembling stand
Ponder nothing earthly-minded
For with blessing in His hand
Christ our God to earth descending
Comes our homage to command

[Verse 2]
King of Kings yet born of Mary
As of old on earth, He stood
Lord of Lords in human likeness
In the body and the blood
He will give to all the faithful
His own self of heavenly food

[Verse 3]
Rank on rank, the host of heaven
Spreads its vanguard on the way
As light from light descending
From the realms of endless day
That the powers of hell may vanquish
As thе darkness clears away
Clear thе way
Clear the way
Clear the way

[Verse 4]
At His feet, the six-winged seraph
Cherubim with sleepless eye
Veil their faces to the Presence
As with ceaseless voice they cry
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Lord most high
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Lord most high
