Gustav Holst - Short Festival Te Deum lyrics
[Gustav Holst - Short Festival Te Deum lyrics]
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 aloud: the Heavens
And all the Powers therein
To thee Cherubim 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 honourable, 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
Sharpness 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 shalt come:
To be our Judge
We therefore pray thee
Help thy servants: whom thou hast
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 for ever
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
O God: we acknowledge thee to be the Lord
All the earth doth worship
Thee: the Father everlasting
To thee all Angels cry aloud: the Heavens
And all the Powers therein
To thee Cherubim 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 honourable, 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
Sharpness 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 shalt come:
To be our Judge
We therefore pray thee
Help thy servants: whom thou hast
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 for ever
Day by day: we magnify thee And we

In thee have I trusted: let
Me never be confounded
