Hail Father, whose creating call,
Unnumber'd worlds attend
Who art in all and overall
Thyself both source and end.

In light unsearchable enthroned,
Whom Angels dimly see,
The Fountain of the Godhead own'd,
First-named among the three.

From Thee, through an eternal Now,
Springs thy co-equal son
An everlasting Father thou,
Ere time began to run.

Not quite display'd to worlds above,
Nor quite on earth conceal'd,
By wondrous, unexhausted love
To mortal man reveal’d.

When Nature's outworn robe shall be
Exchanged for new attire;
And earth, which rose at Thy decree,
Dissolve before Thy fire.

Thy name, O God, be still adored
Through ages without end,
whom none but Thine essential Word
And Spirit comprehend.
