Eternal God, Thou King of kings,

Who reignest one, Thou one in three,

From age to age eternally.

TU TRINITATIS UNITAS

Attributed by some, but with a small degree of probability, to Gregory the Great. The hymn occurs in all the editions of the Roman Breviary, as also in the Sarum, York, and Aberdeen Breviaries.

I

Dread Ruler of the earth and sky,

Accept the praise we yield to Thee,

Who, waking, lift our songs on high.
