Lyrics
We give thanks to the Son, the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn of all creation;
for in him all things in heaven and on earth were created,
things visible and invisible, all things have been created,
through him and for him.
He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
The beginning, the firstborn from the dead,
so that he might come to have first place in everything.
For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell. Amen.
