who lift our hearts to thee;
have mercy now, most merciful,
most holy Trinity.
2 When heaven and earth were yet unmade,
when time was yet unknown,
thou in thy bliss and majesty
didst live and love alone.
3 How wonderful creation is,
the work which thou didst bless;
and O what then must thou be like,
eternal Loveliness!
4 Most ancient of all mysteries!
Low at thy throne we lie:
have mercy now, most merciful,
most holy Trinity. Topics: Lent (season); Repentance; Trinity Used With Tune: LINCOLN
