Gloria
Glory be to God on high, and on earth peace to men of good will.
We praise Thee; we bless Thee; we worship Thee; we glorify Thee.
We give Thee thanks for Thy great glory, O Lord God, heavenly King, God the Father Almighty.
O Lord, the Only-begotten Son, Jesus Christ; O Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father,
who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us:
Thou who takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer;
Thou who sittest at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us.
For Thou only art holy: Thou only art the Lord:
Thou only, O Jesus Christ, with the Holy Ghost, art most high in the glory of God the Father.
Amen.
