TO Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, The God whom we adore; Be glory, as it was, is now, And shall be evermore. III. 68's.

IMMORTAL honour, endless fame, Ascribe to God the Father's name; Let God the Son be glorified, Who for lost men's redemption died;

And equal adoration be,

O God the Spirit, paid to thee!

IV. 6, 6, 6, 6, 8, 8.

TO God, the Father, Son,

And Spirit ever blest, Eternal Three in One,

All worship be addressed; Let ceaseless praise to God be given, By all in earth, and all in heaven.

BY angels in heaven Of every degree, And saints upon earth, All praise be addressed, To God in Three Persons, One God ever blessed, As it has been, now is, And ever shall be.

1 The four living creatures and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of

saints.

2 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

3 And hast made us unto our God kings and priests and we shall reign on the earth. 4 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne, and the living creatures, and the elders: and the num­ber of them was ten thousand times ten thou­sand, and thousands of thousands;

5 Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

6 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb, for ever and ever.

7 And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever. Hallelujah! Rev. v. 8-14.
