<p>Glorious Majesty, before Thee<br>
We bow to worship and adore Thee;<br>
With grateful hearts to Thee we sing,<br>
Earth and heaven tell the story<br>
Of Thine eternal might and glory,<br>
And all Thy works their incense bring.<br>
Lo, hosts of cherubim and countless seraphim<br>
Sing hosanna, holy is God<br>
Almighty God, all merciful and all wise God!</p>
<p>God of light, exalted, holy!<br>
Thy tender care protects the lowly,<br>
Nor leaves Thy children to their fate.<br>
Gracious art Thou, God our Father,<br>
Thy chosen people Thou dost gather,<br>
Within Thine arms compassionate,<br>
Thou gavest us Thy Son, through whom Thy grace is won,<br>
And Thy Spirit dwelleth within to cleanse from sin<br>
Whom Thine own Son hath died to win.</p>
<p>Bless and keep, O Lord, Thy creatures,<br>
Reveal to us Thy gracious features,<br>
O turn to us Thy face with peace<br>
Here our songs we humbly tender,<br>
Til glorified our tongues shall render<br>
To Thee our praise without surcease,<br>
Where hosts of cherubim and countless seraphim<br>
Sing holy is God, almighty God,<br>
All merciful and all wise God!</p>
