Glory be to God the Father,

   And to Christ the Son,

Glory to the Holy Spirit —

   Ever One.

As we view the vast creation,

   Planned with wondrous skill,

So our hearts would move to worship,

   And be still.

 3 

But, our God, how great Thy yearning

   To have sons who love

In the Son e'en now to praise Thee,

   Love to prove!

 4 

'Twas Thy thought in revelation,

   To present to men

Secrets of Thine own affections,

   Theirs to win.

 5 

So in Christ, through His redemption

   (Vanquished evil powers!)

Thou hast brought, in new creation,

   Worshippers!

 6 

Glory be to God the Father,

   And to Christ the Son,

Glory to the Holy Spirit —

   Ever One.
