Glory to God in the highest, and upon earth peace, Good-will among men: We praise Thee, we bless Thee, we give thanks to Thee, We worship Thee, we glorify Thee, For Thy great glory. O Lord the King in heaven, God the Father Almighty, O Lord the only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ, And Holy Spirit: O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, Who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us: O Thou who takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer: O Thou who sittest at the right hand of the Father, have mercy upon us: For Thou only art holy, Thou only art the Lord, Jesus Christ, to the glory of God the Father. Amen. Every day will I bless Thee, And praise Thy Name for ever, And for ever and ever. Vouchsafe, O Lord, through this day also That we may be kept without sin, Blessed art Thou, O Lord God of our fathers, And praised and glorified be Thy Name For ever and ever. Amen. Blessed art Thou, O Lord: teach me Thy judgments. Blessed art Thou, O Lord: teach me Thy judgments. Blessed art Thou, O Lord: teach me Thy judgments. O Lord, Thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation: I have said: O Lord, have mercy upon me, Heal my soul, for I have sinned against Thee. O Lord, to Thee have I fled for refuge: teach me to do Thy will, For Thou art my God, For with Thee is the fountain of life. In Thy light shall we see light: Extend Thy mercy to them that know Thee.
