St. Cecilia's Abbey, UK
1. We praise You,
O Lord almighty,
who art
enthroned above the Cherubim and Seraphim,
whom the
Angels bless, and the Archangels,
and whom the
prophets and apostles praise.
2. We praise You,
O Lord, as we pray to You,
who came to
free us from our sins.
We pray to
You, O great Redeemer,
whom the
Father sent to be the Shepherd of the sheep.
3. You are Christ
our Lord and Saviour,
who were born
of the Virgin Mary.
As we take up
this holy chalice,
free us always from
all our faults.
