HAIL! Father, Son, and Spirit great,
By A Collection of Hymns

      C.M.
      1 HAIL! Father, Son, and Spirit great,
      Before the birth of time
      Enthroned in everlasting state,
      JEHOVAH, ELOHIM!

      2 A mystical plurality
      We in the Godhead own,
      Adoring One in Persons Three,
      And Three in nature One.

      3 From thee our being we receive,
      The creatures of thy grace;
      And, raised out of the earth, we live
      To sing our Maker's praise.

      4 Thy powerful, wise, and loving mind
      Did our creation plan;
      And all the glorious Persons joined
      To form thy favourite, man.

      5 Again thou did'st, in council met,
      Thy ruined work restore,
      Established in our first estate,
      To forfeit it no more.

      6 And when we rise in love renewed,
      Our souls resemble thee,
      An image of the Triune God,
      To all eternity.
