All praise to God the Father,
to Son, and Holy Ghost!
Our swelling notes shall gather
some strain from heaven's high host;
for that great love which gave us
good life and joyous days,
and his own Son to save us,
we God the Father praise.
For form in human fashion,
for our redemption won,
for cross, and bitter Passion,
we praise thee, God the Son!
Like gentle dove descending,
sweet Spirit, hear our cry!
All peace and comfort blending
with impulse pure and high.
The angel hosts adore thee,
we fain would join the throng
they cast their crowns before thee,
and sing the threefold song:
All praise in earth and heaven
to Father and to Son,
to Holy Ghost be given,
eternal Three in One!
(1818-1895), 1890
