Gloria Patri, 18
From Gloria Patri; or, Hymns to the Trinity (1746) · Osborn ed., vol. 3 (1869)
Father of all above, below,
Thy praise let every creature show,
In Thee who live and move and are;
The Father's Fellow and His Son,
Eternal sharer of His throne,
Let all in heaven and earth declare;
Hail, Holy Ghost! alike adored,
One with the Father and the Word,
The Lord of Life, the great I AM!
Coequal, Coeternal Three,
The glorious Triune Deity,
Let all eternally proclaim!
