Original text and translations
The text of the later 'Great Lord of Lords' (which can be substituted without too many underlay problems) is as follows: 1. Great Lord of Lords, supreme immortal King, O give us grace to sing thy praise, which makes earth, air and heav'n to ring. (Repeat Full) 2. O word of God from ages unbegun, the Father's only Son, with Him in pow'r, in substance, with him in pow'r, in substance Thou art One. (Repeat Full) 3. O Holy Ghost, whose care doth all embrace, Thy watch is o'er our race, Thou source of life, Thou spring of peace and grace, Thou source of life, [Thou spring of peace and grace, source of life,][omit from A2 solo] Thou spring of peace and grace. (Repeat Full) 4. One living Trinity, one unseen light, The earth is Thine, Thy light beholds alike the bounds of depth and height, [the bounds] of depth and height.[omit from A1 solo] (Repeat Full) Amen. Rev.H. R. Bramley
