The Most Holy Name of Jesus

The Holy Name of Jesus
Holy, awe-inspiring name, too sublime to utter,
ever desired object of our yearning,
praised without end by the glorious seraphim,
who aing, “Holy, Holy, Holy”,
to you who dwell in the Holy of Holies,
who are filled with bountiful goodness,
you pour forth generously and without end,
awesome and incomprehensible.
You are all and are in all.
With these words, as my contract of hope,
may I enter into a covenant with you, Almighty?
Yes, amen, alleluia!
Venerated king of the universe,
God of all, creator of beings and sovereign Lord,
sole cause of all consequences,
forever, adored, Saviour and Christ, the anointed Messiah.
………………………..
You are the source of grace given through anointing,
a great mystery that miraculously adorns us,
for through it your light was revealed to us.
St Gregory of Narek (+1003)  From the Magnificat 2013 Vol 3 no 3.
