Gradual
Language: English after the Latin
Blessed art Thou, O Lord,
who fathoms the depths
and sits above the Cherubim,
blessed art Thou, O Lord,
in the firmament of the heavens
and praiseworthy [are you] on earth.
Hallelujah!
Translator's note: A "gradual" is the response or chant to be sung after the reading of the Epistle (of a Mass) and before the Alleluia or Gospel.
