Immortal glory too,

Who bought us with his blood
From everlasting wo;
And now he lives,
And now he reigns,
And fees the fruit
Of all his pains.

Immortal worship give,
Whose new creating pow'r
Makes the dead finner live:
His work completes
The great defign,
And fills the foul
With joy divine.

4 Almighty God, to thee
Be endless honours done,
The undivided Three,
And the myfterious One:
Where reafon fails,
With all her pow'rs,
There faith prevails,
And love adores.

Before the world began,
To Him who bore the curfe
To fave rebellious man:

And glory due.

Through our immortal fongs;
We bring to God the Son
Hofannas on our tongues:
Our lips address
The Spirit's name
With equal praise,
And zeal the fame.

And angels round the throne,
Forever blefs and love

The facred Three in One.

His honours high,

When earth and time
Grow old and die.
