Original text and translations

English text

Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Ghost.
We give Thee praise, O Lord.

And He laid His right hand upon me, saying unto me,
Fear not, I am the First and the Last,
I am He that liveth and was dead; and behold,
I am alive for evermore, Amen.
We give Thee praise, O Lord.

Glory be to God,
Who hath raised from the dead the Lord Jesus Christ
to sit upon the Throne and give life and peace unto His people.
We give Thee praise, O Lord.

Glory be to Him who giveth rest to the weary
and heavy laden, and who taketh to Himself
in peace and gladness All that believe in Him,
men, women and little children who sleep their last sleep.
We give Thee praise, O Lord.

Glory be to Him who hath called us
to be His own even in this world,
to live with Him and serve Him in love, in hope, in joy.
We give Thee praise, O Lord.

Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Ghost.
We give Thee praise, O Lord.
