<p>Saint of God, elect and precious,<br>
Protomartyr Stephen, bright<br>
With thy love of amplest measure,<br>
Shining round thee like a light;<br>
Who to God commendest, dying,<br>
Them that did thee all despite.</p>
<p>Glitters now the crown above thee,<br>
Figured in thy honored name:<br>
O that we, who truly love thee,<br>
May have portion in the same;<br>
In the dreadful day of judgment<br>
Fearing neither sin nor shame.</p>
<p>Laud to God, and might, and honor,<br>
Who with flowers of rosy dye<br>
Crowned thy forehead, and hath placed thee<br>
In the starry throne on high:<br>
He direct us, He protect us,<br>
From death&#8217;s sting eternally.</p>
