Come, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
One God in Persons Three,
Bring back the heavenly blessing, lost
By all mankind and me.
Thy favour, and thy nature too,
To me, to all restore;
Forgive, and after God renew,
And keep us evermore.
Eternal Sun of righteousness,
Display thy beams divine,
And cause the glories of thy face
Upon my heart to shine.
Light in thy light O may I see,
Thy grace and mercy prove,
Revived, and cheered, and blessed by thee,
The God of pardoning love!
Lift up thy countenance serene,
And let thy happy child
Behold, without a cloud between,
The Godhead reconciled.
That all-comprising peace bestow
On me, through grace forgiven,
The joys of holiness below,
And then the joys of heaven.
