I Sing More Praise

 

O most sublime, 
O most gracious, 
O first thinker, 
O first speaker, 
O from everlasting to everlasting, 
O mighty defender, 
O strength giver, 
O lover of souls, 
O captain of hosts, 
O kinsman redeemer, 
O hearer of prayers, 
O gentle shepherd, 
O twister of oaks, 
O lifter of my head, 
O lily of the valley, 
O rose of sharon, 
O king of angels, 
O great and awesome, 
O suffering servant, 
O willing sacrifice, 
O name above all names, 
the humblest you created
sings your praise,
Amen.

(suggested by a prayer of Mechtid of Magdeburg)
