24. To God Almighty, Father, Son,
And Comforter, the Holy Ghost,
Be honour, worship, homage done,
By saints and angels, sacred host;
As 'twas in ages heretofore,
Is now, and shall be evermore.
25. MOST holy, blessed, glorious Lord,
Three Persons in One God ador'd!
Have mercy on us, hear our prayer,
Who miserable sinners are-
But Jesus for such sinners died,
Hear us through Him, the Crucified!
26. SINCE God the Father, God the Son,
And God the Spirit, Three in One,
Glorious beyond all speech and thought,
Have jointly our salvation wrought,
We'll join them in our songs of praise,
Now, and through heaven's eternal days.
The Universal Doxology.
1 EUROPE! speak the Mighty Name,
Loud th' Eternal Three proclaim!
Let thy deep seraphic lays
Thunder forth the echoing praise.
2 Asia! bring thy raptur'd songs:
Let innumerable tongues
Swell the chord from shore to shore,
Where thy thousand billows roar.
3 Sable Afric! aid the strain,
Triumph o'er thy broken chain:
Bid thy wildest music raise
All its fervour in His praise.
4 Shout, America! thy joys,
While His love thy song employs;
Let thy lonely wilderness
High exalt His righteousness.
5 All as one adore the Lord,
Father, Spirit, and the Word:
Hail Thou glorious Three in One,
Worthy Thou to reign alone!
6 Praise Him, all ye Nations, praise:
Saints in heaven, your anthems raise:
Angels, join the solemn chord-
Reign for ever, Holy Lord!
