Hail, Holy Ghost, Jehovah, Third
In order of the Three;
Sprung from the Father and the Word
From all eternity!
Thy Godhead brooding o’er the abyss
Of formless waters lay;
Spoke into order all that is,
And darkness into day.
In deepest hell, or heaven’s height,
Thy presence who can fly?
Known is the Father to thy sight,
The abyss of Deity.
Thy power through Jesu’s life displayed,
Quite from the virgin’s womb,
Dying, his soul an offering made,
And raised him from the tomb.
God’s image, which our sins destroy,
Thy grace restores below;
And truth, and holiness, and joy,
From thee their fountain flow.
Hail, Holy Ghost, Jehovah, Third
In order of the Three;
Spring from the Father and the Word
From all eternity!
