1
To Christ, the Prince of Peace,
And Son of God most high,
The father of creation,
Sing we with holy joy.

2
Deep in his heart for us,
The wound of love he bore,
The love with which he brings,
The hearts that him adore.

Refrain:
O Jesus, victim blest,
What else but love so fine
You choose to give all
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia!

3
O Fount of endless life,
O Spring of water clear,
O Flame celestial bliss
We unto you draw near.

(Repeat Refrain)

Coda:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia!
