Ode 5.

You, Lord, my light, came into the world, a holy light turning from the darkness of ignorance those who sing your praise in faith.

You showed on Sinai of old, O Christ, to Moses, who saw God, the tabernacle not made with hands, thus depicting your Church.

You, Lord, prepared a tabernacle upon earth. By your power you join the choirs of mortals with the ranks of heaven.

You, Lord, we know to be the source of life. You, Christ, the Holy One, came and preached the gospel of peace to your Church.

You, Bride of God, we advance as an unbreakable weapon against foes. You we have gained as the anchor and hope of our salvation.
