86 | The Hymnal#87 | 88 |
1 O God, we praise Thee; and confess
That Thou, the only Lord
And Everlasting Father, art
By all the earth adored.
2 To Thee all angels cry aloud;
To Thee the powers on high,
Both cherubim and seraphim,
Continually do cry: -
3 O Holy, Holy, Holy Lord,
Whom heavenly hosts obey,
The world is with the glory filled
Of Thy majestic ray.
4 The apostles' glorious company,
And prophets crowned with light,
With all the martyr's noble host,
Thy constant praise recite.
5 The holy Church throughout the world,
O Lord, confesses Thee,
That Thou Eternal Father art,
Of boundless majesty;
6 Thy honored, true, and only Son;
And Holy Ghost, the Spring
Of never-ceasing joy: O Christ,
Of glory Thou art King.
Amen.
