Gloria Patri, 3

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Gloria Patri; or, Hymns to the Trinity (1746) · Osborn ed., vol. 3 (1869)

Religion

Father, live, by all things fear'd;
Live the Son, alike revered;
Equally be Thou adored,
Holy Ghost, eternal Lord.

Three in person, One in power,
Thee we worship evermore:
Praise by all to Thee be given,
Endless theme of earth and heaven.
