69  A Song of Praise

This Canticle is also known as Glory and Honour.

Refrain:

All   You created all things, O God,

and are worthy of our praise for ever.

1    You are worthy, our Lord and God,  ♦

to receive glory and honour and power.

2    For you have created all things,  ♦

and by your will they have their being.

3    You are worthy, O Lamb, for you were slain,  ♦

and by your blood you ransomed for God

saints from every tribe and language and nation.

4    You have made them to be a kingdom and priests

serving our God,  ♦

and they will reign with you on earth.

Revelation 4.11; 5.9b,10

All   To the One who sits on the throne and to the Lamb  ♦

be blessing and honour and glory and might,

for ever and ever. Amen.

All   You created all things, O God,

and are worthy of our praise for ever.
