Representative Text

1 Glory be to God on high,
Glory to the Son,
Glory to the Holy Ghost,
Matchless Three in One!
Who in the beginning were,
In the present be;
Who shall reign world without end,
Thro’ eternity.

2 Thee we worship, Thee adore,
Matchless Three in One!
By our heav’nly Father loved,
Ransomed by His Son,
By the spirit purified,
And from day to day
Guarded, O so watchfully,
Lest we go astray.

3 Thee we worship, Thee adore,
Matchless Three in One!
O accept our humble praise,
Father, Spirit, Son;
May the holy Comforter
Be our constant guide;
Then with Thee, in earth and heav’n,
Truly we’ll abide.
