To the Trinity

To—" Soldiers of Christ, arise."
FATHER, in whom we live,
In whom we are, and move,
The glory, power, and praise receive
Of Thy creating love:
Let all the angel-throng
Give thanks to God on high,
While earth repeats the joyful song,
And echoes to the sky.
Incarnate Deity,
Let all the ransom'd race
Render in thanks their lives to Thee,,
For Thy redeeming grace:
The grace to sinners show'd
Ye heavenly choirs proclaim,
And cry, Salvation to our God,
Salvation to the Lamb!
Spirit of Holiness,
Let all Thy saints adore
Thy sacred energy, and bless
Thine heart-renewing power:
Not angel-tongues can.tell
Thy love's ecstatic height,
The glorious joy unspeakable,
The beatific sight.
Eternal triune Lord,
Let all the hosts above,
Let all the sons of men record,
And dwell upon Thy love:
When heaven and earth are fled
Before Thy glorious face,
Sing all the saints Thy love hath made,
Thine everlasting praise!
