Ephesians Canticle

God chose us in his Son
To be his adopted children
Praised be the God and Father
For our Lord Jesus Christ
Who has bestowed on us in Christ
Every spiritual blessing in the heavens
God chose us in him
Before the world began
To be holy
And blameless in his sight
He predestined us
To be his adopted sons through Jesus Christ
Such was his will and pleasure
That all might praise the glorious favor
He has bestowed on us in his beloved
In him and through his blood
We have been redeemed
And our sins forgiven
So immeasurably generous
Is God’s favor to us
God has given us the wisdom
To understand fully the mystery
The plan he was pleased
To decree in Christ
A plan to be carried
In Christ, in the fulness of time
To bring all things into one in him
In the heavens and on earth
Glory to the Father
And to the Son
And to the Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning
Is now
And will be for ever
Amen
