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.
