To God the Father, God the Son, And God the Spirit, Three in One, O praise him, O praise him, Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!

Give Us the Wings of Faith Give us the wings of faith to rise Within the veil, and see The saints above, how great their joys, How bright their glories be. We ask them whence their victory came: They, with one united breath, Ascribe the conquest to the Lamb, Their triumph to his death. They marked the footsteps that he trod, His zeal inspired their breast; And following their incarnate God, They reached the promised rest.
Words: I. Watts (1674 — 1748)
Music: E. Bullock (1890 — 1979)
