The Trinity

Devotional:

THREE IN ONE, ONE IN THREE, GOD OF MY SALVATION,

Heavenly Father, blessed Son, eternal Spirit,
      I adore thee as one Being, one Essence,
  one God in three distinct Persons,
  for bringing sinners to thy knowledge and to
    thy kingdom.
O Father, thou hast loved me and sent Jesus to
    redeem me;
O Jesus, thou hast loved me and assumed my
    nature,
  shed thine own blood to wash away my sins,
  wrought righteousness to cover my
    unworthiness;
O Holy Spirit, thou hast loved me and entered
  my heart, implanted there eternal life,
  revealed to me the glories of Jesus.
Three Persons and one God, I bless and praise thee,
  for love so unmerited, so unspeakable,
  so wondrous, so mighty to save the lost
  and raise them to glory.
O Father, I thank thee that in fullness of grace
  thou hast given me to Jesus, to be his sheep,
    jewel, portion;
O Jesus, I thank thee that in fullness of grace
  thou hast accepted, espoused, bound me;
O Holy Spirit, I thank thee that in fullness of
  grace thou hast
    exhibited Jesus as my salvation,
    implanted faith within me,
    subdued my stubborn heart,
    made me one with him for ever.
O Father, thou art enthroned to hear my prayers,
O Jesus, thy hand is outstretched to take my
    petitions,
O Holy Spirit, thou art willing to help my
  infirmities, to show me my need,
  to supply words, to pray within me,
  to strengthen me that I faint not in
    supplication.
O Triune God, who commandeth the universe,
  thou hast commanded me to ask for those
    things that concern thy kingdom and my soul.
Let me live and pray as one baptized into the
  threefold Name.
