He sitteth on the Father's Hand, Alleluia.
And ruleth sky and sea and land. Alleluia.

Now all things have their end foretold, Alleluia.
In holy David's song of old: Alleluia.

My Lord is seated with the Lord, Alleluia.
Upon the Throne of God adored. Alleluia.

In this great triumph of our King, Alleluia.
To God on high all praise we bring. Alleluia.

To Him all thanks and laud give we, Alleluia.
The Ever-Blessed Trinity. Alleluia.
