3 Thee, holy Father, we confess; Thee, holy Son, adore; And thee, the Holy Ghost, we bless, 4 Hail! holy, holy, holy Lord, 102 L. M. The glorious goodness of the triune Jehovah. YOME, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Choone all-perfect God we own, Restorer of thine image lost, Thy various offices make known. 2 Jehovah in three persons, come, And draw, and sprinkle us, and seal, Poor, guilty, dying worms, in whom Thou wilt eternal life reveal. 3 Our fallen, ruin'd souls, to raise, The knowledge of thyself bestow; Reveal the riches of thy grace, 兽 And all thy glorious goodness show. 103 One God in three persons. C. M. HOne God in persons three; TAIL, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, Of thee we make our joyful boast, 2 Present alike in every place, Thou dwellest evermore. 3 In wisdom infinite thou art, And every thought of every heart 4 Thou lov'st whate'er thy hands have made 5 Wherefore let every creature give But chiefly, Lord, the thanks receive,- 104 5th P. M. 4 lines 7s The co-eternal Three. TOLY, holy, holy Lord, God the Father, God the Word, Blessings more than we can give. 3 Three in one, and one in three, God, incline thy gracious ear; 4 Thee, while man, the earth-born, sings, Angels shrink within their wings; Prostrate seraphim above Breathe unutterable love. 5 Fain with them our souls would vie; Fall, o'erwhelm'd with love, or soar; 105 Co-equal and co-eternal. L. M. BCo-equal, co-eternal Three, QLESSING and honour, praise and love, In earth below, in heaven above, 2 Let all who owe to thee their birth, 106 Unsearchable. C. M.

Dwelling in light which no man can approach unto. ETE TERNAL Power, Almighty God, Unfading light is thine abode, To mortal man unknown. 2 Before the radiance of thine eye, The heavens no longer shine; And all the glories of the sky Are but the shade of thine. 3 Great God, and wilt thou condescend To cast a look below? To this vile world thy notice bend These seats of sin and wo? 4 How strange, how wondrous, is thy love! With trembling we adore: Not all the' exalted minds above 5 While golden harps and angel tongues Great God, permit our humble songs 108 0 L. M. Canst thou find out the Almighty to perfection? Greatness, whose undiminish'd ray, Essential life's unbounded sea, What lives and moves, lives by thy word, - 109 Incomprehensibly glorious. YOD is a Name my soul adores, L. M. The' almighty Three, the' eternal One: Nature and grace, with all their powers, Confess the Infinite Unknown. 2 Thy voice produced the sea and spheres; Bade the waves roar, the planets shine: But nothing like thyself appears Through all these spacious works of thine. 3 Still restless nature dies and grows; From change to change the creatures run: Thy being no succession knows, And all thy vast designs are one. 4 A glance of thine runs through the globe, 5 How shall polluted mortals dare And see but shadows of thy face. 6 Who can behold the blazing light? 110 C. M.
