Original text and translations

French text Agneau de Dieu! par tes langueurs Tu pris sur toi notre misère: Et tu nous fis pour Dieu ton Père, Et rois et sacrificateurs. Ensemble aussi nous te rendons Honneur, gloire et magnificense, Force, pouvoir, obéissance, Et dans nos coeurs nous t'adorons. Amen! Amen! Seigneur! Amen!

English translation Lamb of God! By your tears You take our sins upon yourself: And you make us for God your Father, And kings and priests. Together, we too give you Honour, glory and majesty, Strength, power, obedience, And in our hearts we adore you. Amen! Amen! Lord! Amen!

English text

O Lord, my God,
hear Thou the prayer Thy servant prayeth;
have Thou respect unto his prayer.
Hear Thou in heaven Thy dwelling place,
and when Thou hearest, Lord, forgive.
1 Kings 8:28, 30
