Gloria Patri, 4

Father of mankind, whose love
In Christ for all is free,
Thou hast sent Him from above
To bring us all to Thee;
Thou hast every heart inclined
Christ the Saviour to embrace,
All those heavenly drawings find,
All may be saved by grace.

Christ, the true and living Light,
Thou shinest into all,
Lightest every son of night
That fell in Adam's fall:
Bear we witness unto Thee,
Thou Thy light to all dost give,
That the world through it might see
Their Saviour, and believe.

Holy Ghost, all-quickening Fire,
Thou givest each his day,
Dost one spark of life inspire
In every castaway;
Not to aggravate his sin,
Not his sorer doom to seal,
But that he might let Thee in
And all Thy fulness feel.

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
All glory be to Thee;
The whole world of sinners lost
To save Thou dost agree:
Thee triumphantly we praise,
Vie with all Thy hosts above,
Shout Thine universal grace,
Thine everlasting love.
