1 Praise to God in the highest! Bless us, O Father!
Praise to thee.
2 Guide and prosper the nations, rulers and people:
Praise to thee.
3 May the truth in its beauty flourish triumphant:
Praise to thee.
4 May the mills bring us bread, for food and for giving:
Praise to thee.
5 May the good be obeyed, and evil be conquered:
Praise to thee.
6 Give us laughter, and set us gaily rejoicing:
Praise to thee.
7 Peace on earth, and goodwill, be ever among us.
Praise to thee.
