Most high, all powerful, all good Lord!
\nAll praise is Yours, all glory, all honor, and all blessing.<\/p>\n

To You, alone, Most High, do they belong.
\nNo mortal lips are worthy to pronounce Your name.<\/p>\n

Be praised, my Lord, through all Your creatures,
\nespecially through my lord Brother Sun,
\nwho brings the day; and You give light through him.
\nAnd he is beautiful and radiant in all his splendor!
\nOf You, Most High, he bears the likeness.<\/p>\n

Be praised, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars;
\nin the heavens You have made them bright, precious and beautiful.<\/p>\n
