A hymn based on the Te Deum

1 Glory be to your name, Sovereign Lord,
by creation forever adored;
angel voices unceasingly call
God the Holy One, high over all !

2 Prophets, martyrs, apostles combine, 
singing praises to you, Lord divine;
from eternity Father and Son,
with the Spirit, three persons in one. 

3 King of glory O Christ, yet on Earth
from a virgin was your humble birth.
You were slain to release us from sin,
open Heaven and welcome us in. 

4 By your Father now seated, you reign,
and as judge you will come back again.
Help your blood-redeemed servants, we pray:
may they rise up in glory that day. 

5 Day by day let our worship ascend,
may our anthems of praise never end.
Grant us grace to stay faithful and true,
Lord, have mercy: our hope is in you !
