Thee Father of men And angels we praise, Whose wonders are seen In nature and grace Throughout thy creation, Whose goodness we prove, And boundless compassion And infinite love. Thee, Jesus, the Son Of God we confess, Whose passion alone Hath purchas'd our peace; Page 10 With cherubs before thee And seraphs we fall, And prostrate adore thee The Saviour of all. O Spirit of might, Of joy, and of love, Who guidest us right To mansions above, Whose hallowing graces For heaven prepare; We pay thee our praises 'Till glorified there. There, there we shall see The substance divine, And fashion'd like thee Transcendantly shine, Thy personal essence Be bold to explain, And wrapt in thy presence Eternally reign. All glory to God In his highest abode Who sits on the throne! All glory to Jesus his crucified Son! All glory and praise To the Spirit of grace! The eternal I AM Let his saints and his angels for ever proclaim! Shout to the great Jehovah's praise, Ye sons of glory and of grace, One God in Persons Three adore, The same in majesty and power; Ye suffering, and triumphant host Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Praise God, from whom pure blessings flow, Whose bowels yearn on all below, Who would not have one sinner lost, Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. All worship and praise To the antient of days, The Father, the Word, and the Spirit of grace! With our friends in the sky Let us glorify The mystical Three that bear record on high! The Three that are One In a manner unknown The substance divine in a mystery own; Till in him we remove To his presence above, And eternally plunge in the depths of his love. Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Thy Godhead we adore, Join with the celestial host Who praise thee evermore; Live, by earth and heaven ador'd, Three in One, and One in Three, Holy, holy, holy Lord, All glory be to thee!
