To Comprehend The Great Three-One

1 To comprehend the great THREE-ONE,

Is more than highest angels can;

Or what the Trinity has done

From death and hell to ransom man.

2 But all true Christians this may boast,

(A truth from nature never learned),

That Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,

To save our souls are all concerned.

3 The Father’s love in this we find,

He made His Son our sacrifice;

The Son in love His life resigned;

The Spirit of love His blood applies.

4 Thus we the Trinity can praise

In Unity through Christ our King;

Our grateful hearts and voices raise

In faith and love, while thus we sing:

5 Glory to God the Father be,

Because He sent His Son to die;

Glory to God the Son, that He

Did with such willingness comply;

6 Glory to God the Holy Ghost,

Who to our hearts this love reveals;

Thus God Three-One, to sinners lost

Salvation sends, procures, and seals.
