THE TRIUNE GOD.

3 O Holy, Holy Spirit! Thou Spirit of our Lord, Who in the ages later

Gave man the living Word. A light and life Thou bringest, bab Drawn from the fount of good, T And with our souls Thou strivest To bring us back to God.

4 We praise Thee, O we praise Thee, Thou Spirit, Son, and Sire! Though here in sin and misery We have a feeble lyre. We hail those holy ages

OT

Beyond the mortal shore, Where perfect praise engagesim IA The good for evermore. D. Thomas.

MOST

TOST ancient of all mysteries! T Before Thy throne we lie! Have mercy now, most merciful, Most holy Trinity!

2 When heaven and earth were yet unmade,

When time was yet unknown, Thou in Thy bliss and majesty Didst live and love alone!

3 How wonderful creation is!

The work that Thou didst bless: And, oh! what then must Thou be like, Eternal loveliness!

4 O listen then, Most Pitiful,

To Thy poor creature's heart; It blesses Thee that Thou art God, That Thou art what Thou art!

5 Most ancient of all mysteries! Still at Thy throne we lie; Have mercy now, Most Merciful, Most Holy Trinity! F. W. Faber.
