Hymns on the Trinity, 87

Hail, Father, Son, and Spirit, great
Before the birth of time,
Enthroned in everlasting state
Jehovah Elohim!
A mystical plurality
We in the Godhead own,
Adoring One in persons three,
And Three in nature One.

From Thee our being we receive
The creatures of Thy grace,
And raised out of the earth we live
To sing our Maker's praise:
Thy powerful, wise, and loving mind
Did our creation plan,
And all the glorious persons join'd
To form Thy favourite, man.

Again Thou didst, in council met,
Thy ruin'd work restore,
Establish'd in our first estate
To forfeit it no more:
And when we rise in love renew'd,
Our souls resemble Thee,
An image of the Triune God
To all eternity.
