Father Most Holy

1    Father most holy, merciful and tender;

      Jesus our Saviour, with the Father reigning;

      Life giving Spirit, counsellor and teacher;

      Light never waning,

      We worship you.

2    Trinity sacred, unity unshaken;

      Deity perfect, gracious and forgiving;

      Light of the seeker, hope of all forsaken,

      Strength of the living,

      We worship you.

3    Maker of all things, all your creatures praise you;

      Serving you gladly throughout all creation;

      Hear us Almighty as we bring before you

      Our adoration,

      We worship you.

4    To the all ruling triune God be glory;

      In you forever, all of heaven rejoices;

      We too exalt you, giving honour worthy,

      Lifting our voices,

      We worship you.
