English poem
Common Metre
by Isaac Watts (1674–1748)
Where the tune includes two stanzas.
The God of mercy be ador'd, Who calls our souls from death, Who saves by his redeeming word, And new-creating breath.
To praise the Father and the Son And Spirit all divine, The One in Three, and Three in One, Let saints and angels join.
