Brethren, let us join to bless
From Oremus Hymnal
Brethren, let us join to bless
Christ, the Lord our righteousness;
let our praise to him be given,
high at God's right hand in heaven.
Son of God, to thee we bow;
thou art Lord, and only thou;
thou the blessèd Virgin's seed,
glory of thy Church, and head.
Thee the angels ceaseless sing;
thee we praise, our Priest and King;
worthy is thy name of praise,
full of glory, full of grace.
Thou hast the glad tidings brought
of salvation by thee wrought;
wrought to set thy people free,
wrought to bring our souls to thee.
May we follow and adore
thee, our Savior, more and more:
guide and bless us with thy love,
till we join thy saints above.
