Words: , 16th Cen­tu­ry (Gloria patri et filio); trans­lat­ed from La­tin to Eng­lish by . This is a chor­ale, not well suit­ed for con­gre­ga­tion­al sing­ing, but we in­clude it be­cause of the beau­ty of the mu­sic and its his­tor­ic­al sig­nif­i­cance.

Music: Giovanni P. da Palestrina.

Father of Light, we sing in Thy praise,
Father of Light, we sing in Thy praise.
Joyfully now, our voices we raise,
Joyfully now, our voices we raise.
May Thy peace come down from above,
May Thy peace come from above.
Fill our hearts with Thy great love.
Fill our hearts with Thy great love.
