Glory to God in the Highest

Glory to God in the Highest

Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace,
good pleasure among people.
We praise you,
we bless you,
we worship you,
we glorify you,
we give thanks to you
for your great glory,
Lord, King,
heavenly One,
God, Father Almighty,
Lord, only Son,
Jesus Christ,
and the Holy Spirit.
Lord God,
Lamb of God,
Son of the Father,
you who take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us;
you who take away the sins of the world,
receive our petition;
you who sit at the right hand of the Father,
have mercy on us.
For you alone are holy,
you alone are Lord,
Jesus Christ,
to the glory of God the Father. Amen.
