Mirabile Misterium Lyrics

1. A marvelous thing I have mused in my mind,
How that Veritas sprang right of the ground,
And Justicia, for all mankind,
From heaven to earth he came adown.
Mirabile misterium!
The Son of God is man become.

2. Then Mary, that merciful may,
Seeing man damned for his trespass
Hath sent down Sapientia, the sooth to say;
Man is redeemed and brought to grace.
Mirabile misterium!
The Son of God is man become.

3. Celestial citizens, for us that you pray
To Him that is both Alpha and O,
That we may be saved on Doomsday,
And brought to that bliss He bought us to!
Mirabile misterium!
The Son of God is man become.
