CCCVI. To the Trinity

1 Come, Thou Almighty King,
Help us thy name to sing,
Help us to praise!
Father, all glorious,
O'er all victorious,
Come, and reign over us,
Ancient of days!

2 Jesus, our Lord, arise,
Scatter our enemies,
And make them fall!
Let thine almighty aid
Our sure defence be made,
Our souls on thee be stay'd;
Lord, hear our call!

3 Come, thou incarnate word,
Gird on thy mighty sword,
Our pray'rs attend!
Come, and thy people bless,
And give thy word success;
Spirit of holiness,
On us descend!

4 Come Holy Comforter,
Thy sacred witness bear,
In this glad hour!
Thou who Almighty art,
Now rule in ev'ry heart,
And ne'er from us depart,
Spirit of pow'r!

5 To the great one in three,
Eternal praises be,
Hence, evermore;
His Sov'reign majesty
May we in glory see,
And to eternity
Love and adore
