Mortals, sing the Father’s praises,
For his rich displays of grace;
Lo, his special love embraces,
Sinners of the human race.
Glory to the Son be given,
Who became of humble birth
To prepare our way to heaven,
He descended to the earth.
Glory to the sacred Spirit,
Who the stubborn will subdues;
Sinners vile who claim no merit,
He both humbles and renews.
Glory to the Three eternal,
Yet the great mysterious One,
Author of all bliss supernal,
Be unceasing honours done.
