Tu Trinitatis Unitas

O Thou! who dost all nature sway,
Dread Trinity in Unity!
Accept the trembling praise we pay
To thy eternal Majesty.

Hear us, who one and all arise,
While silent midnight breathes around,
To seek from Thee, with tears and cries,
A healing balm for every wound.

Almighty Lord! whatever guilt
Satan hath wrought in us this night,
May it before thy Presence melt,
Like mist before the morning light.

Grant us a body pure within;
A wakeful heart, a ready will;
Grant us, by no deep cherish’d sin,
The fervour of the soul to chill.

Fill Thou our souls, Redeemer true!
With thy most pure celestial ray;
So may we walk in safety through
All the temptations of the day.

Father of mercies! hear our cry;
Hear us, O sole-begotten Son!
Who, with the Holy Ghost most high,
Reignest while endless ages run.
