Religion

To — "Hail, ycsits, hail, our great High- Priest."
Praise to the glorious Cause of all
(Whom one in persons three we call)

Be by His every creature given!
Worship Divine to Him be paid,
Whose hands the whole creation made,
The Triune God of earth and heaven.
Each person, absolutely Lord,
Exists, by heaven and earth adored,
The God of Israel's faithful line;
h person doth the essence claim,
The incommunicable name,
And all the attributes Divine.
Jehovah, ere the world begun,
In God the father and the Son,
And God the Holy Ghost was found;
One self-existent I Vity,
He reigns, when time no more shall be,
With everlasting glory crown'd.
