895. The Song of the Redeemed (Magna et mirabilia): Canticle 19

Refrain:
We sing the praises of your name
for you only are the holy one.

1 O ruler of the universe, Lord God
great deeds are they that you have done,
surpassing human understanding.
Your ways are ways of righteousness and truth,
O king of all the ages. (Refrain)

2 Who can fail to do you homage, Lord,
and sing the praises of your Name?
for you only are the holy One.
All nations will draw near and fall down before you,
because your just and holy works have been revealed. (Refrain)

3 Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be for ever. Amen. (Refrain)
