12079. Blest Trinity, From Mortal Sight

1 Blest Trinity! from mortal sight
Veiled in Thine own eternal Light!
We Thee confess, in Thee believe;
To Thee with loving hearts we cleave.

2 O Father! Thou Most Holy One!
O God of God! Eternal Son!
O Holy Ghost! Thou Love divine!
To join Them both is ever Thine.

3 The Father is in God the Son,
And with the Father He is One;
In both the Spirit doth abide,
And with Them both is glorified.

4 Eternal Father! Thee we praise;
To Thee, O Son! our hymns we raise;
O Holy Ghost! we Thee adore!
One mighty God, for evermore!
