Singable English lyrics forThe Procession by César Franck

God is moving the feels along! Over the meadows, and the Moors.
Green beechen woodlands rifted.
He comes by host attended by the priests high uplifted;
Oh ye birds, add your carols to man’s adoring song!
It is ended.

The throng about an oak assembling in solemn awe incline
Before the mystery trembling.
Oh sun! Pour down the rays upon this hallowed shrine!
O ye birds, at your carols, to man’s adorning song!
Fair flowers, your breath combined with the incense upwelling!
Oh splendor! all is light and prayer and praise high swelling!
God is moving the fields along.
