Highest and brightest of the Ninth order Second in glory to he himself Closest to all the powers Master and mirror of his might Created beautiful in his bliss Deemed Lucifer, bearer of the light Governor of the Heavenly host The bright angel's head is turned Scornful of his praises Shall you sing your song To god or me? See the beauty that I bear For I am the worthiest That ever may be A worthy a lord for sooth am I And ever worthier than he In evidence that I am just I shall sit in god's throne With him at my knee The brightness of my body clear Is brighter than god's, A thousand fold All the world's joy Is marked for me Beams of my brightest Are burning so bright In glorious gleam I shall be like him Who is highest on high All angels turn to me I advise And to your sovereign, Bend your knee If god should return I shall not leave But sit right here before his face Resplendent in his rightful place
