Ehre, Ehre sey Gott in der Höhe! Singet der Himmlischen selige Schaar. Ehre, Ehre sey Gott in der Höhe! Stammeln auch wir, die die Erde gebar. Staunen nur kann ich, und staunend mich freu'n; Vater der Welten! doch stimm' ich mit ein: Ehre sey Gott in der Höhe! Ehre, Ehre sey Gott in der Höhe! Kündet der Sterne strahlendes Heer. Ehre, Ehre sey Gott in der Höhe! Säuseln die Lüfte, brauset das Meer. [Feyrender]1 Wesen unendlicher Chor Jubelt im ewigen Danklied' empor: Ehre sey Gott in der Höhe!

“Kunnia olkoon Jumalalle korkeuksissa!” laulaa taivaallisten autuas joukko. “Kunnia olkoon Jumalalle korkeuksissa!” takeltelemme mekin, maan lapset. Voin vain hämmästellä ja iloita; maailmankaikkeuden Isä, mutta yhdyn lauluun: ”Kunnia olkoon Jumalalle korkeuksissa!” “Kunnia olkoon Jumalalle korkeuksissa!” julistaa säteilevä tähtiparvi. “Kunnia olkoon Jumalalle korkeuksissa!” suhisevat tuulet, kohisee meri. Juhlivien olentojen loputon kuoro kaiuttaa ilmoille ikuisen kiitosvirtensä: Kunnia olkoon Jumalalle korkeuksissa!”
