1.  Unto God be highest praise
and thanks for all His favor
protecting us in many ways.
Our trust will never waver.
Our God has shown good will toward us;
eternal peace has come to us,
An end to all our warfare.

and thanks for all His mercies,
of our heavenly Father,
which evermore, in many ways,
by whom full pardon for our sin was won,

You bring us all together.
Our God has shown good will toward us,
O Lamb belov’d, to You on high
and now eternal peace has come,
from our despair Your children cry
an end to all our warring.
and seek Your mercy ever.          [Ed.]
 
2. O Jesus Christ, only Son of God

O Lamb beloved, our Lord and God,
receive the prayers of needful hearts,
have mercy on Thy children.
 
3.  O Holy Ghost, God’s greatest gift,
Source of health and comfort,
protect us from the devil's power,
whom Jesus Christ redeemeth
through martyrdom and bitter death,
take from us mis'ry and need;
in You our souls have trusted.}}
 
 


3. O Holy Ghost , God’s precious gift
and Comforter unfailing,
o’er Satan’s snares our souls uplift
with all Your pow’r availing
avert our woes and calm our dread.
For us the Savior’s blood was shed;
we trust in You to save us. [Catherine Winkworth alt.]

German.png German text

1. Allein Gott in der Höh sei Ehr
und Dank für seine Gnade
darum, daß nun und nimmermehr
uns rühren kann kein Schade.
Ein Wohlgefalln Gott an uns hat,
nun ist groß Fried ohn Unterlaß,
all Fehd hat nun ein Ende.

2. O Jesu Christ, Sohn eingeborn
deines himmlischen Vaters,
Versöhner derer, die waren verlorn,
du Stiller unsers Haders,
Lamm Gottes, heilger Herr und Gott,
nimm an die Bitt von unsrer Not,
erbarm dich unser aller!

3. O heilger Geist, du höchstes Gut,
du all'rheilsamster Tröster,
vor Teufels Gwalt fortan behüt,
die Jesus Christ erlöset
durch große Mart'r und bittern Tod,
abwend all unsern Jammr und Not;
darauf wir uns verlassen.

1. Unto God be highest praise
and thanks for all His favor
protecting us in many ways.
Our trust will never waver.
Our God has shown good will toward us;
eternal peace has come to us,
An end to all our warfare.

2. O Jesus Christ, the only Son
of our heavenly Father,
by whom full pardon for our sin was won,
You bring us all together.
O Lamb belov’d, to You on high
from our despair Your children cry
and seek Your mercy ever. [Ed.]

3. O Holy Ghost , God’s precious gift
and Comforter unfailing,
o’er Satan’s snares our souls uplift
with all Your pow’r availing
avert our woes and calm our dread.
