Isaac Watts published this hymn text on the Trinity in approximately 1709 according to Charles Spurgeon’s “Our Own Hymn Book”. It is common meter (8.6.8.6) and so could be sung to the same tune as “O, For a Thousand Tongues to Sing”.<\/p>\n
Glory to God the Father’s name,
\nWho, from our sinful race,
\nChose out His favourites to proclaim
\nThe honours of His grace.<\/p>\nGlory to God the Son be paid,
\nWho dwelt in humble clay,
\nAnd to redeem us from the dead,
\nGave His own life away.<\/p>\nGlory to God the Spirit give,
\nFrom whose almighty power
\nOur souls their heavenly birth derive,
\nAnd bless the happy hour.<\/p>\nGlory to God that reigns above,
\nTh’ eternal Three in One,
\nWho by the wonders of His love
\nHas made His nature known.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Isaac Watts published this hymn text on the Trinity in approximately 1709 according to Charles Spurgeon’s “Our Own Hymn Book”.
