ON THE TRIUNE NATURE OF GOD.
Its the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, one God. O
God, we rejoice in Thy mercy in truth and right.
Praise be to God before whom
nothing was, and who was before everything, after whom there is nothing, and He
is the heir of all things, and to Him all things return, who by His knowledge
kept the knowledge of all things, and nothing but His work is sufficient for
this, in whose knowledge is the end of all things, and He counts everything by
His knowledge. We ask Thee, O God, by Thy mercy and Thy power to put us among
those who know Thy truth and follow Thy will and [fear] Thy wrath and adore Thy
excellent names in Thy sublime attributes. Thou art the compassionate, the
merciful; seated upon the throne Thou art worthy; Thou art higher than the
creatures and Thou fillest all things. Thou doest good and art not done good to;
Thou judgest and art not Judged; Thou art rich towards us and we are poor
towards Thee. Thou art near to those who approach Thee; Thou answerest those who
call on Thee and implore Thee. Thou, O God, art Lord of all things, God of all
things, Creator of all things. Open our mouths, loosen our tongues, soften our
hearts, and open our breasts to the praise of Thy noble and high and great and
blessed and holy name. Verily there is no god before Thee, and no god after
Thee. To Thee (shall we] return; Thou art the Almighty. To Thee be the praise, O
God, Creator of the heavens and the earth, and of all that is therein by Thy
Word and Thy Spirit.
To Thee be the praise, O God, who dwellest in light,
Creator of the angels and the spirit that they may adore Thy name, Thy holy
name; for the message of Thy name and for the authority of Thy power, and they
do not weary of Thy majesty and Thy holiness, saying, Holy, holy, holy is the
mighty Lord, who filleth the heavens and the earth with His honour. Verily they
adore Thee, and set their seal to one Lord,
