792. O Trinity, Most Blessed Light

1 O Trinity, most blessed light,
O Unity of sov'reign might,
as now the fiery sun departs,
come shed your light within our hearts.

2 To you our morning song of praise,
to you our evening prayer we raise;
our humble joy shall ever be
to praise your name eternally.

3 To God the Father, heav'nly light,
to Christ revealed in earthly night,
to God the Spirit let us raise
one heart and voice in ceaseless praise.
