Representative Text

1 With heart and voice, in holy exultation,
Our sacrifice of praise to God we bring;
And offer thus, in humble adoration,

2 To Thee, O Christ, we grateful homage render,
With souls upborne on wings of sacred song;
For Thy great love to us, so kind and tender,

3 O Holy Spirit, help our weak endeavor;
Inspire our souls to worship and rejoice;
To Father, Son and Thee, both now and ever,
Be highest praise from every heart and voice!
