S232. A Song of Praise

1. Glory to you, Lord God of our fathers;
you are worthy of praise; glory to you.

2. Glory to you for the radiance of your holy Name;
we will praise you and highly exalt you for ever.

3. Glory to you in the splendor of your temple;
on the throne of you majesty, glory to you.

4. Glory to you, seated between the Cherubim;
we will praise you and highly exalt you for ever.

5. Glory to you, beholding the depths;
in the high vault of heaven, glory to you.

6. Glory to you, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;
we will praise you and highly exalt you for ever.
