Hymn 3:35. 
Or thus: 

Honour to thee, almighty Three,
And everlasting One;
All glory to the Father be,
The Spirit, and the Son.

Hymn 3:36. 3d.  S. M.

Ye angels round the throne
And saints that dwell below,
Worship the Father, love the Son,
And bless the Spirit too.

Hymn 3:37. 
Or thus: 

Give to the Father praise,
Give glory to the Son,
And to the Spirit of his grace
Be equal honour done.

Hymn 3:38. 
A song of praise to the blessed Trinity.

The 1st, as the 148th Psalm.

1 I give immortal praise
To God the Father’s love
For all my comforts here,
And better hopes above;
He sent his own
Eternal Son,
To die for sins
That man had done.

2 To God the Son belongs
Immortal glory too,
Who bought us with his blood
From everlasting woe;
And now he lives,
And now he reigns,
And sees the fruit
Of all his pains.

3 To God the Spirit’s Name
Immortal worship give,
Whose new-creating power
Makes the dead sinner live: 
His work completes
The great design
And fills the soul
With joy divine.

4 Almighty God, to thee
Be endless honours done,
The undivided Three,
And the mysterious one: 
Where reason fails
With all her powers,
There faith prevails,
And love adores.

Hymn 3:39. 
The 2d, as the 148th Psalm.

1 To Him that chose us first
Before the world began,
To Him that bore the curse
To save rebellious man,
To Him that form’d
Our hearts anew,
Is endless praise
And glory due.

2 The Father’s love shall run
Thro’ our immortal songs,
We bring to God the Son
Hosannas on our tongues: 
Our lips address
The Spirit’s Name
With equal praise,
And zeal the same.

3 Let every saint above
And angel round the throne,
For ever bless and love
The sacred Three in One: 
Thus heaven shall raise
His honours high
When earth and time
Grow old and die.

Hymn 3:40. 
The 3d, as the 148th Psalm.

To God the Father’s throne
Perpetual honours raise;
Glory to God the Son,
To God the Spirit praise: 
And while our lips
Their tribute bring,
Our faith adores
The name we sing.

Hymn 3:41. 
Or thus: 

To our eternal God,
The Father and the Son,
And Spirit all divine,
Three mysteries in one,
Salvation, power,
And praise be given
By all on earth
And all in heaven.

Hymn 3:42.  L. M.

The Hosanna;
or, Salvation ascribed to Christ.

1 Hosanna to King David’s Son,
Who reigns on a superior throne;
We bless the Prince of heavenly birth
Who brings salvation down to earth.

2 Let every nation, every age,
In this delightful work engage;
Old men and babes in Sion sing
The growing glories of her King.
