O God, we praise Thee, and confess
That Thou the only Lord
And everlasting Father art
By all the earth adored
To Thee all angels cry aloud
To Thee the powers on high
Both cherubim and seraphim
Continually do cry
O holy, holy, holy Lord
Whom heavenly hosts obey
The world is with the glory filled
Of Thy majestic sway!
| |
The apostles glorious company
And prophets crowned with light
With all the martyrs noble host
Thy constant praise recite
The holy Church throughout the world
O Lord, confesses Thee
That Thou eternal Father art
Of boundless majesty
