Canticle 2 Te deum Lyrics

Canticle 2 Te deum - REMISSION CHOIR

...

We praise thee O God

We acknowledge thee to be the Lord

All the earth doth worship thee

The father everlasting

To thee all angels cry a-loud

The heavens and all the powers therein

To thee cherubin and seraphim

Continually do cry

Holy, holy, holy

Lord God of sabaoth

Heaven and earth are full

Of the majesty of thy glory

The glorious company of the apostles praise thee

The goodly fellowship of the prophets praise thee

The noble army of martyrs praise thee

The holy church throughout all the world doth acknowledge thee

The father, Of an infinite majesty

Thine honorable true and only son

Also the Holy Ghost the comforter

Thou art the king of glory O Christ

Thou art the everlasting son of the father

When thou tookest upon thee to deliver man

Thou didst not abhor the virgin’s womb

When thou hadst overcome the sharpenness of death

Thou didst open the kingdom of heaven to all believers

Thou sittest at the right hand of God

In the glory of the father

We believe that thou shall come to be our judge

We therefore pray help thy servant whom thou hadst redeemed with thy precious blood

Make them to be numbered with thy saints

In glory everlasting

O Lord save thy people and bless thine heritage

Govern them and lift them up forever

Day by day we magnify thee

And we worship thy name ever world without end

Vouchsafe O Lord to keep us this day without sin

O Lord have mercy upon us, have mercy upon us

O Lord, let thy mercy lighten upon us as our trust is in thee

O Lord, in thee have I trusted, let me never be confounded.
