I

Come ye people, come adore Him,

God in Holy Trinity;

God the Father, Son, and Spirit,

Ever Blessed Unity.

II

Thine the glory, God Almighty,

To the Son and Spirit given,

Ere upon the world's creation

Dawned the new-born light of heaven.

III

Holy, holy, we adore Thee,

One in power, in nature one;

God the Father, God the Spirit,

God the Co-Eternal Son.

IV

By the Son the wide creation

Rose where chaos held its sway;

By the Spirit, God Almighty

Swept eternal night away.

V

Son, the Father's love revealing,

Son, through whom the Spirit came,

Blessed Godhead! endless glory

Be to Thine exalted name.

it is a comely thing
