FATHER WE PRAISE THEE

Father, we praise thee,

now the night is over;

active and watchful,

stand we all before thee;

singing, we offer

prayer and meditation;

thus we adore thee.

Percy Dearmer (1867-1936) �from Gregory the Great (circa 540-604)

FATHER WE PRAISE THEE

Monarch of all things,

fit us for thy mansions;

banish our weakness,

health and wholeness sending;

bring us to heaven,

with thy saints united;

joy without ending.

FATHER WE PRAISE THEE

All-holy Father,

Son, and equal Spirit,

Trinity blessed,

send us thy salvation;

thine is the glory,

gleaming and resounding

through all creation.
