Great God of all, holy Creator,

Father and Lord of heaven, earth, and sea,
Humbly we fall, adoring, before thee:
Receive our prayers, and praises, most High,
Infinite beauty, power and skill
Shine over all thy glorious works,
O! who can count the stars that fill
The spacious firmament of heaven!
Great is thy love, O Lord, to man,
Mercy and holy peace are thine;
Grant us then grace with thankful voice
To praise thy name in songs of joy.
