Hymn Text
Verse 1
Father most holy gracious and forgiving,
Christ, high exalted, prince of our salvation,
Spirit of council, nourishing creation,
God ever-lasting.
Verse 2
Trinity blessed, unity unshaken,
Only true Godhead, sea of bounty endless,
Light of the angels, succour now the friendless,
Shield the forsaken.
Verse 3
All things you have made-nothing does not preach you,
Serving you ever in its course ordained;
We too would praise you; this our prayer unfeigned,
Hear, we beseech you.
Verse 4
Boundless your praise be, whom no limit boundeth,
God in three persons, high in heaven living,
Where adoration, homage and thanksgiving,
Ever resoundeth
