Praise ye the Lord, ye
hosts above in yonder heavenly height,
And bless the Lord, ye
saints below, Who in His praise delight.
By all His creatures
let His Name be honored and adored;
Let all that breathe,
in praise unite to glorify the Lord.
PM Doxology
May the grace of
Christ our Savior and the Father’s boundless love
With the Holy Spirit’s
favor rest upon us from above.
Thus may we abide in
union with each other and the Lord,
And possess, in sweet
communion joys which earth cannot afford.
