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!

Th�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.

Thine honored, true and only Son;
And Holy Ghost, the Spring
Of never ceasing joy; O Christ
Of glory Thou art King.
