One Hymn--Three Verses


An unknown author wrote it originally in Latin as Ave Colenda Trinitas. The translation we know today is by John David Chambers. Its most familiar setting is to Old Onehundreth.

++++++++++

1. All hail, adored Trinity!
All hail, eternal Unity!
O God the Father, God the Son,
And God the Spirit, ever One.

2. Three persons praise we evermore,
One only God our hearts adore:
In thy sure mercy, ever kind,
May we your true 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.
