Worshiping the Trinity

Robin Parry bemoaned the lack of hymns (and sermons) on the Trinity in his delightful book, Worshipping Trinity. He's correct, but the older hymnals are loaded with marvelous hymns about the Trinity; we just need to start singing them again! This hymn, from the Methodist Episcopal hymnal (1870 edition) would be a good one to start with:

101 C. M.
The Trinity

HAIL! holy, holy, holy Lord,
   Whom one in three we know;
   By all thy heavenly host adored,
   By all thy church below.

2 One undivided Trinity
   With triumph we proclaim;
   Thy universe is full of thee,
   And speaks thy glorious name.

3 Thee, holy Father, we confess;
   Thee, holy Son, adore;
   And thee, the Holy Ghost, we bless,
   And worship evermore.

4 Hail! holy, holy, holy Lord,
   Our heavenly song shall be;
   Supreme, essential One, adored
   In co-eternal Three.
                  Charles Wesley

I found an online copy of the Methodist Episcopal hymnbook that's the same edition as the one I own, but it's date is 1868, while mine is 1870. They are identical, so I'm going to start linking to it. Here's the base url on the Internet Archive. I don't recommend copying and pasting from the PDF version; it's loaded with misspellings that haven't been corrected. That's fairly common in older books; I have to clean up my scans from the one I'm using too. The faded ink and the darkening of the paper from the acid in it really make it difficult to obtain a clean scan.
