I.

E praise thee with the earliest morning ray;

WE

We praise thee with the parting beam of day:
All things that live and move, by sea and land,
Forever ready at thy service stand.

2.

Thy Christendom is singing night and day,

66

Glory to him, the mighty God, for aye,

By whom, through whom, in whom, all beings are!"

Grant us to echo on the song afar.

3.

Thy name is great, thy kingdom in us dwell,
Thy will constrain and feed and guide us well:
Spare us, redeem us in the evil hour;

For thine the glory, thine the rule, the power!
