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!

Glorie, glorie zij God in den hoge! klinkt het hierboven de hemelen door. Glorie, glorie zij God in den hoge! stamelt hen na hier beneden ons koor. Stam’lend slechts klinkt hier op aarde het lied van wie de pracht van Gods glorie beziet: Glorie zij God in den hoge! Glorie, glorie zij God in den hoge! zingt ook het sterrenkoor ’s nachts met ons mee. Glorie, glorie zij God in den hoge! fluist’ren de wolken en buldert de zee. Jub’lende leden van ’t eeuwigheidskoor, brengt met gejuich weer uw lied ten gehoor: Glorie zij God in den hoge!
