Lyrics:
1. All hail, adored Trinity! All hail, eternal Unity! O God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit, every One.
2. Three persons praise we evermore, one only God our hearts adore: In thy sure mercy, ever kind, may we your strong protection find.
3. O Trinity! O Unity! Be present as we worship thee; and with the songs that angels sing, unite the hymns of praise we bring.
