Text: Paraphrase of "Te Deum" by Ignaz Franz
Music: "Te Deum" from Katholisches Gesangbuch, 1774

Holy God, we praise Thy Name;
Lord of all, we bow before Thee!
All on earth Thy scepter claim,
All in Heaven above adore Thee;
||: Infinite Thy vast domain,
Everlasting is Thy reign. :||

Hark! the loud celestial hymn
Angel choirs above are raising,
Cherubim and seraphim,
In unceasing chorus praising;
||: Fill the heavens with sweet accord:
Holy, holy, holy, Lord. :||

Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit, Three we name Thee;
While in essence only One,
Undivided God we claim Thee;
||: And adoring bend the knee,
While we own the mystery. :||
