To the Master of music and loveliness: Praise, power, dominion for ever.
To the Lord of the Word of Creation be praise, power, dominion for ever.
To the Maker of movement, color and light: Praise, power, dominion for ever.
To the Builder, Designer, Creator, be praise, power, dominion for ever.
To the Theme of all song, Inspiration of Love:
To the Artist of Life, to the Greatest and Least: Praise, power, dominion for ever.
For he is the greatest upon his high throne, and he was the least as the child of a maiden:
Praise then to Jesus whose mother was Mary,
and praise now to Christ who is God in the midst of us. Praise.
Lord of all beauty, adoring we come to thee: give us thyself both in time and eternity.
Lord of all beauty, adoring we come to thee, offering all that we are or can hope to be,
Lord of all beauty.
Praise, power, dominion for ever.
