Glory to the Son;
Glory to the Holy Ghost,
Matchless Three in One!
Who in the beginning were,
In the present be;
Who shall reign world without end,
Through eternity.
2 Thee we worship, Thee adore,
Matchless Three in One!
By our heavenly Father loved,
Ransomed by His Son,
By the Spirit purified,
And from day to day
Guarded on, so watchfully,
Lest we go astray.
3 Thee we worship, Thee adore,
Matchless Three in One!
Oh, accept our humble praise,
Father, Spirit, Son;
May the holy Comforter
Be our constant guide;
Then with Thee, in earth and Heaven,
Truly we’ll abide. Used With Tune: PRIMAVERA Text Sources: Sacred Songs No. 2, by Ira D. Sankey, James McGranahan & George C. Stebbins (New York: The Biglow & Main Company, 1899), number 3
