591. O Trinity, Most Blessed Light

1 O Trinity, most blessed light,
O Unity of sov'reign might,
As now the fiery sun departs,
Oh, shine your light into our hearts.

2 To you our morning song of praise,
To you our evening prayer we raise;
May we your glory evermore
In lowly reverence adore.

3 All praise to God the Father be
And to the Son eternally,
Whom with the Spirit we adore
Forever and forevermore.
