Active and watchful, stand we all before Thee;
Singing, we offer prayer and meditation:
Thus we adore Thee.
2 Monarch of all things, fit us for Thy mansions;
Banish our weakness, health and wholeness sending;
Bring us to heaven, where Thy saints united
Joy without ending.
3 All-holy Father, Son, and equal Spirit,
Trinity blessed, send us Thy salvation;
Thine is the glory, gleaming and resounding
Through all creation.
Scripture: Psalm 5:3 Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTE SANCTORUM
