g 4 Glory to God who reigns above,
Th' eternal Three in One,
Who by the wonders of his love,
Has made his nature known.

HYMN 28. 1st. S. M. St. Thomas. [*]
ET God the Father live

For ever on our tongues:
Sinners from his first love derive
The ground of all their songs.

2 Ye saints, employ your breath In honour of the Son;

Who bought your souls from hell and death, By offering up his own.

3 Give to the Spirit praise

Of an immortal strain;

Whose light and power, and grace conveys
Salvation down to men.

4 While God the Comforter
Reveals our pardon'd sin,
O may the blood and water bear
The same record within!

5 To the great One in Three,
That seals this grace in heaven,
The Father, Son, and Spirit, be
Eternal glory given.]

And angels faint beneath the praise.

Who calls our souls from death,
