The Ruler of Heights

Verse 1] In the boundless wave, at the center of the universe, Having in his splendor penetrated the lights, The Golden Embryo, in the beginning he unfolded, As soon as born, he was the sole Master of the universe. He who established the Earth, and Heaven as well, He who by his majesty became the unique king of the world... ​[Verse 2] Of all that breathes, and of all that slumbers, This God who rules over men and beasts, This God who gives the Soul, who gives strength, He to whom life and death are but a shadow, He by his greatness, reigns over the Mountains, By whom was braced the Sun and the celestial vault, this wondrous firmament... ​[Magisterial Chorus] Glory to the Most High, Sovereign of the heights!... He joins together Heaven and Earth!... His name is Yahweh, greater than the splendors,... He is the pure source and the supreme light!... ​[Verse 3] He joins together Heaven and Earth, Who by the waters propagates the living upon the earth, The plants, the animals and man, The oceans and the constellations. Beauty and Joy are your two brides, Day and night are your two flanks. ​[Verse 4] The divisions of the clock of time Are born of the Spiritual Being who enlightens, He who ordained the months, the seasons, the years. His form is not within the realm of sight, None shall therefore see him with their own eyes, He is perceived by the heart, by thought, by the Spirit... ​[Magisterial Chorus] Glory to the Most High, Sovereign of the heights!... He joins together Heaven and Earth!... His name is Yahweh, greater than the splendors,... He is the pure source and the supreme light!... ​[Outro] To know him thus, one gains immortality... This unique mystery, whose form is the boundless,... The All, the ancient one from beyond the darkness,... He is the one who is order and Truth.... His name is Yahweh, Great Glory!... Thank you for these gifts, for the breath of life.... for the breath of life...
