Translation
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to all those of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we worship you, we glorify you. We give you thanks according to your great glory, Lord God, Heavenly King, God the Father Almighty. Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, You who take away the sins of the world, Have mercy on us and receive our prayer. You who sit at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us, For you alone are holy. You alone are the Lord. You alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ. With the Holy Spirit in the glory of God the Father, Amen!

In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. —Matthew 5:14–16
