All Glory be to God on High |
Nikolaus Decius, 1525, Catherine Winkworth; German text
All glory be to God on high, Who hath our race befriended! To us no harm shall now come nigh, The strife at last is ended; God showeth His good will to men, And peace shall reign on earth again; Oh, thank Him for His goodness!
2. We praise, we worship Thee, we trust, | 3. O Jesus Christ, Thou only Son Of God, Thy heavenly Father, Who didst for all our sins atone And Thy lost sheep dost gather: Thou Lamb of God, to Thee on high, From out our depths, we sinners cry, Have mercy on us, Jesus!
4. O Holy Ghost, Thou precious Gift, |
