God of all, we bow before thee.
All on earth your scepter claim;
all in heav’n above adore thee.
Infinite thy vast domain,
everlasting is thy reign.

angel choirs above are raising.
Cherubim and seraphim,

Holy, holy, holy Lord.

join thy sacred name to hallow.
Prophets swell the glad refrain,
and the blessed martyrs follow,
and, from morn till set of sun,
through the church the song goes on.

Holy Spirit, three we name thee;
still, one holy voice is heard:
undivided God, we claim thee,
and adoring bend the knee,
while we own the mystery.

Herr, wir preisen deine Stärke!
Vor dir neigt die Erde sich

Wie du warst vor aller Zeit,
so bleibst du in Ewigkeit!
2 Alles, was dich preisen kann,
Cherubim und Seraphinen,
stimmen dir ein Loblied an,
alle Engel die dir dienen,
rufen dir stets ohne Ruh:

Heilig, Herr der Himmelsheere!
Starker Helfer in der Not;
Himmel, Erde, Luft und Meere
sind erfüllt von deinem Ruhm;
alles ist dein Eigentum.

loben Große und auch Kleine;
dich, Gott Vater; dir zum Preis
singt die heilige Gemeinde,
sie verehrt auf seinem Thron

whose new-creating power
makes the dead sinner live;
his work completes the great design
and wills the world with joy divine.

And the mysterious One:
where reason fails with all her powers,
there faith prevails, and love adores.

Praise to the Holiest in the Height
Author: John Henry Newman (1801-1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 171 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-4 Lyrics: 1 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise;
in all his words most wonderful,
most sure in all his ways.
2 O loving wisdom of our God!
When all was sin and shame,
a second Adam to the fight
and to the rescue came.
3 O generous love! that flesh and blood,
which did in Adam fail,
should strive afresh against the foe,
should strive and should prevail:
4 and that the highest gift of grace
should flesh and blood refine;
God's presence and his very self,
and essence all-divine;
5 who in the garden secretly,
and on the cross on high,
should teach his followers, and inspire
to suffer and to die.

and in the depth be praise;
in all his words most wonderful,
most sure in all his ways. Topics: Holy Week (Good Friday); Praise of God; Sunday of the Passion Used With Tune: GERONTIUS

To the Name of Our Salvation
Author: John Mason Neale (1818-1866) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 120 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-4 Lyrics: 1 To the Name of our salvation
laud and honour let us pay,
which for many a generation
hid in God's foreknowledge lay;
but with holy exultation
we may sing aloud today.
2 Jesus is the name we treasure,
name beyond what words can tell;
name of gladness, name of pleasure,
ear and heart delighting well;
name of sweetness passing measure,
saving us from sin and hell.
3 'Tis the name that whoso preaches
speaks like music to the ear;
who in prayer this name beseeches
finds its comfort ever near;
who its perfect wisdom reaches,
heavenly joy possesses here.
4 Jesus is the name exalted
over every other name;
in this name, whene'er assaulted,
we can put our foes to shame:
strength to them who else had halted,
eyes to blind and feet to lame.
5 Therefore we in love adoring,
this most blessed name revere,
holy Jesus, thee imploring
so to write it in us here
that, hereafter heavenward soaring,
we may sing with angels there.

Infant Holy, Infant Lowly
Author: Edith M. G. Reed (1885-1933) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 96 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-12 Lyrics: 1 Infant holy, infant lowly,
for his bed a cattle stall;
oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
Swift are winging angels singing,
nowells ringing, tidings bringing:
Christ the babe is Lord of all,
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
2 Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping
vigil till the morning new;
saw the glory, heard the story,
tidings of a gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
praises voicing, greet tomorrow:
Christ the babe was born for you,
Christ the babe was born for you! Topics: Christmas; Epiphany Used With Tune: POLISH CAROL (W ZLOBIE LEZY) Text Sources: Polish carol
