O God of life, whose power benign
Doth o’er the world in mercy shine,
Accept our praise, for we are thine.
O Father, all-creating Lord,
Be Thou by every tongue implored.
Be Thou by every heart adored.
O Son of God, for sinners slain,
We bless Thee, Lord, whose dying pain
For us did endless life regain.
O Holy Ghost, whose guardian care
Doth us for heavenly joys prepare,
May we in Thy communion share.
Father, protect us here below;
Jesus, Thy mercy may we know;
O Holy Ghost, Thy power bestow.
O holy, blessèd Trinity,
With faith we sinners bow to Thee,
In us, O God, exalted be!
---Alternative verses---
O Father, uncreated Lord,
Be Thou in every land adored;
On every soul Thy love be poured.
O Holy Blessed Trinity,
With faith we sinners bow to Thee;
In heaven and earth exalted be.
