TRINITY.

All glory be to God on high, Who hath our race befriended! To us no harm shall now come nigh, The strife at last is ended; God showeth His good will to men, And peace shall reign on earth again; O thank Him for His goodness! 2. We praise, we worship Thee, we trust, And give Thee thanks forever, O Father, that Thy rule is just And wise and changes never. Thy boundless power o’er all things reigns, Done is whate’er Thy will ordains: Well for us that Thou rulest! 3. O Jesus Christ, Thou only Son Of God, Thy heavenly Father, Who didst for all our sins atone And the lost sheep dost gather: Thou Lamb of God, to Thee on high, From out our depths, we sinners cry, Have mercy on us, Jesus! 4. O Holy Ghost, Thou precious Gift, Thou Comforter unfailing, O’er Satan’s snares our souls uplift And let Thy power availing Avert our woes and calm our dread; For us the Savior’s blood was shed, We trust in Thee to save us.

Come, Thou almighty King, Help us Thy name to sing, Help us to praise! Father all glorious, O’er all victorious, Come and reign over us, Ancient of Days. 2. Jesus, our Lord, arise, Scatter our enemies, And make them fall. Let Thine almighty aid Our sure defense be made; Our souls on Thee be stayed; Lord, hear our call! 3. Come, Thou incarnate Word, Gird on Thy mighty sword, Our prayer attend; Come and Thy people bless And give Thy Word success; Spirit of Holiness, On us descend. 4. Come, holy Comforter, Thy sacred witness bear In this glad hour. Thou, who almighty art, Now rule in every heart, And ne’er from us depart, Spirit of Power! 5. To the great One in Three The highest praises be, Hence, evermore! His sovereign majesty May we in glory see And to eternity Love and adore!

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee; Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! God in Three Persons, blessed Trinity! 2. Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee, Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea, Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee, Which wert and art and evermore shalt be. 3. Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee, Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see, Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee, Perfect in power, in love, and purity. 4. Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! All Thy works shall praise Thy name in earth and sky and sea; Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! God in Three Persons, blessed Trinity!

The mystery hidden from the eyes Of learned men and sages, God hath revealed us from the skies, In Scripture’s holy pages, That He alone is King above All other gods whatever, Great, mighty, faithful, full of love, His people’s Shield and Savior; One Essence, but Three Persons. 2. As Father, Son, and Holy Ghost The righteous seed adore Him; So named, so praised, He is the boast Of all who bow before Him; He’s Abraham’s and Isaac’s God, And Jacob’s, whom He knoweth, The Lord of hosts, who every good, Both night and day, bestoweth; Who only worketh wonders. 3. The Father hath the Son begot, First-born of every creature; The Son took our weak flesh, but not Our sinfulness of nature; Both from the Father and the Son The Holy Ghost proceedeth From all eternity; yet none In might and power exceedeth; All equal, coeternal. 4. Be glad, my heart, thy Portion see, Thy priceless Pearl and Treasure! He is thy Friend, supply will He Thy needs with bounteous measure; He made thee in His image, was For thy offenses smitten, With true faith fill thee, through His grace Doth all thy crosses sweeten With His dear word of promise. 5. Rise, then, to Him, the Ever-blest, And learn to know Him rightly; Such knowledge can alone bring rest And make thy soul burn brightly With the pure flame of holy love, Which cheers thy course to heaven; For God will show thee things above Which here ’tis only given To hear of and see darkly. 6. But woe to the ungodly race, In wilful blindness living, Rejecting God and His dear grace, Their hearts to creatures giving. On them, alas! hell’s dreadful gates Ere long will close forever; For him who God rejects and hates God will reject and sever From His eternal kingdom. 7. O Prince of Might, Thy mercy show, Thou God of earth and heaven; To every sinner here below Thy saving grace be given! Bring back Thy sheep that go astray And blinded eyes enlighten, And turn Thou everything away That wickedly might frighten Thine own, whose faith is feeble. 8. Grant this, that we, Thy people, may All reach the heavenly portals And in Thy kingdom sing for aye Mid all the blest immortals: That Thou, O Lord, art King alone, Above all gods whatever, The Father, Son, and Spirit, One, Thy people’s Shield and Savior, One Essence, but Three Persons!

God of my life, Thy boundless grace Chose, pardoned, and adopted me; My Rest, my Home, my Dwelling-place: Father, I come to Thee. 2. Jesus, my Hope, my Rock, my Shield, Whose precious blood was shed for me, Into Thy hands my soul I yield: Savior, I come to Thee. 3. Spirit of glory and of God, Long hast Thou deigned my Guide to be; Now be Thy comfort sweet bestowed: My God, I come to Thee. 4. I come to join that countless host Who praise Thy name unceasingly; Blest Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, My God, I come to Thee.

Thou who art Three in unity, True God from all eternity, The sun is fading from our sight, Shine Thou on us with heavenly light. 2. We praise Thee with the dawning day, To Thee at even also pray; With our poor song we worship Thee Now, ever, and eternally. 3. Let God the Father be adored, And God the Son, the only Lord, And God the Holy Spirit be Adored throughout eternity!

Father of glory, to Thy name Immortal praise we give, Who dost an act of grace proclaim And bid us rebels live. 2. Immortal honor to the Son, Who makes Thine anger cease; Our lives He ransomed with His own And died to make our peace. 3. To Thine almighty Spirit be Immortal glory given, Whose teachings bring us near to Thee And train us up for heaven. 4. Let men with their united voice Adore th’ eternal God And spread His honors and their joys Through nations far abroad. 5. Let faith and love and duty join One grateful song to raise; Let saints in earth and heaven combine In harmony and praise.

Glory be to God the Father, Glory be to God the Son, Glory be to God the Spirit; Great Jehovah, Three in One! Glory, glory, While eternal ages run! 2. Glory be to Him who loved us, Washed us from each spot and stain; Glory be to Him who bought us, Made us kings with Him to reign! Glory, glory, To the Lamb that once was slain! 3. Glory to the King of angels, Glory to the Church’s King, Glory to the King of nations; Heaven and earth, your praises bring! Glory, glory, To the King of Glory bring! 4. Glory, blessing, praise eternal! Thus the choir of angels sings; Honor, riches, power, dominion! Thus its praise creation brings; Glory, glory, Glory to the King of kings!

Father of heav’n, whose love profound A ransom for our souls has found, Before Thy throne we sinners bend; To us Thy pardoning love extend. 2. Almighty Son, Incarnate Word, Our Prophet, Priest, Redeemer, Lord, Before Thy throne we sinners bend; To us Thy saving grace extend. 3. Eternal Spirit, by whose breath The soul is raised from sin and death, Before Thy throne we sinners bend; To us Thy quickening power extend. 4. Jehovah, Father, Spirit, Son, Eternal Godhead, Three in One, Before Thy throne we sinners bend; Grace, pardon, life, to us extend.

Father, in whom we live, In whom we are and move, All glory, power, and praise receive For Thy creating love. 2. O Thou Incarnate Word, Let all Thy ransomed race Unite in thanks, with one accord, For Thy redeeming grace. 3. Spirit of Holiness, Let all Thy saints adore Thy sacred gifts and join to bless Thy heart-renewing power. 4. Eternal Triune Lord, Let all the hosts above, Let all the sons of men record, And dwell upon, Thy love.

God the Father, be our Stay When hell’s dread powers assail us; Cleanse us from our sins, we pray, Nor in our last hour fail us. Keep us from the Evil One, Firm in the faith abiding, In Christ, our Savior, hiding, And heartily confiding. Let us put God’s armor on: With all true Christians running Our heavenly race and shunning The devil’s wiles and cunning. Amen, Amen, this be done, So sing we, Hallelujah! 2. Jesus Christ, be Thou our Stay When hell’s dread powers assail us; Cleanse us from our sins, we pray, Nor in our last hour fail us.

The Lord, my God, be praised, My Light, my Life from heaven; My Maker, who to me Hath soul and body given; My Father, who protects My life from infancy And mighty gifts of love Hath e’er bestowed on me. 2. The Lord, my God, be praised, My Trust, my Life from heaven, The Father’s own dear Son, Whose life for me was given; Who thus atoned for me With His most precious blood; Who giveth to my faith The greatest heavenly good. 3. The Lord, my God, be praised, My Hope, my Life from heaven, The Father’s Spirit, whom The Son to me hath given; He who revives my heart And gives me strength and power, Help, comfort, and support In sorrow’s gloomy hour. 4. The Lord, my God, be praised, He who forever liveth, To whom the heavenly host E’er praise and honor giveth. The Lord, my God, be praised, In whose great name I boast, God Father, God the Son, And God the Holy Ghost. 5. To Him we now sing praise, With joy our offering bringing And with the angel host The “Holy! Holy!” singing. To Him all Christendom Sings praises joyfully; The Lord, my God, be praised Throughout eternity!
