568. Gloria In Excelsis

Glory be to God on high,
and on earth peace, good will towards men!

We praise Thee, we bless Thee,
we worship Thee, we glorify Thee,
we give thanks to Thee for Thy great glory.
O Lord God, Heavenly King,
God the Father Almighty!
O Lord the only begotten Son, Jesus Christ,
O Lord God, Thou Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
that takest away the sin of the world,
have mercy upon us!
Thou, that takest away the sin of the world,
receive our prayer!
Thou that sittest at the right hand of God the Father,
have mercy on us!
For Thou only art holy,
Thou only art the Lord,
Thou only, O Christ, with the Holy Ghost,
art most high in the glory of God the Father.

Amen.
