Verse 1:
As the fleeting day retreats in quiet majesty,
We gather in the stillness of Thy sacred space;
In whispered psalms and gentle litany,
Pax vobiscum resounds in Thy holy grace.
Chorus:
Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, hearts unite
O Lord, enfold us in Thy sacred night.
Verse 2:
In the rose-tinted dusk, our prayers ascend,
To Thee, O Almighty, our solace and our guide;
Let Thy ineffable love ever extend,
In the serenity of Vespers, with Thee abide.
