24 | I Thy mighty word commanding, The heavens were settled high, And earth to Thee responding Was spread beneath the sky. | | II O God of power, Thy servants Would seek Thy power divine, That they their hearts to love Thee May evermore incline. | | III And gazing on the glory That shines in triple ray, Our souls shall feast with gladness On Thy sweet light alway. | | IV And of Thy glory shining, And of Thy ruling light, From age to age Thy servants Shall hymn both day and night. | | V To Thee be lasting praises, Immortal Three in One,— Thou Father, Son, and Spirit,— Now, and while ages run. | |
