Trinity Sunday (Mighty Father ! Blessed Son !)
From Hymns of Love and Praise (1866)
Mighty Father! Blessed Son!
Holy Spirit! Three in One!
Evermore Thy will be done!
Threefold is Thy glorious might.
Threefold is Thy Name of light,
Holy! Awful! Infinite!
Threefold let our praises be.
Great mysterious One, to Thee!
Undivided Trinity!
Mystery of mysteries!
Before Whom with veil'd eyes
Songs of saints and angels rise.
Rainbow-like the emerald zone
That encompasseth Thy throne,
O Thou most mysterious One!
Thunderings and lightnings, roll'd
From beneath. Thy saints enfold.
Clothed in white, and crowned with gold.
Holy, holy, holy Lord
God Almighty! Father! Word!
Spirit! Three in One adored!
Threefold is Thy love to me.
Threefold let my graces be.
Faith, and Hope, and Charity.
Mighty Father! Blessed Son!
Holy Spirit! Three in One!
Evermore Thy will bo done!
