Original text and translations

English text

Let all men praise the Lord,
In worship lowly bending; On His most Holy Word,
Redeem'd from woe, depending. He gracious is and just,
From childhood us doth lead; On Him we place our trust
And hope, in time of need.

Glory and praise to God,
The Father, Son, be given, And to the Holy Ghost,
On high enthron'd in Heaven.
Praise to the Three-One God;
With power'ful arm and strong,
He changeth night to day;
Praise Him with grateful song.
