Antiphon:
Priestly people, Kingly people,
Holy people, God’s chosen people,
Sing praise to the Lord.
1.
We sing to you, O Christ
beloved Son of the Father,
We give you praise, O wisdom
everlasting, and Word of God.
2.
We sing to you,
O Son, born of Mary the Virgin,
We give you praise, Our Brother
born to heal us, our saving Lord.
3.
We sing to you, O brightness
Of splendour and glory,
We give you praise, O Morning Star,
Announcing the coming day.
4.
We sing to you, O light
Bringing men out of darkness,
We give to you praise, O guiding
Light who shows the way to heaven.
5.
We sing to you, O Lamb,
Put to death for the sinner,
We give you praise, O Victim,
Immolated for all mankind.
6.
We sing to you, The Shepherd.
Who leads to the kingdom;
We give you praise,
Who gather all your sheep
In the one true fold.
7.
We sing to you, O Lord,
Whom the Father exalted,
We give you praise,
In glory you are coming.
To judge all men.
