I grew up with this hymn in church. Always loved it and couldn't remember one of the verses so I searched this morning. So love this hymn. Praise GOD for everything!

THE BELIEVER’S EXPERIENCEOF THE TRIUNE GOD

... Most names are composed of three words. God’s name also has three parts. The name of the Triune God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is not a light matter. Anyone among all the nations who believes in the Lord must be baptized into one name—the name Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Perhaps many of us have never considered that our Triune God has such a special name. We believers worship God, but have we ever wondered what the name of the God whom we worship is? Jehovah is God’s name in the Old Testament, but today we are no longer in the Old Testament but in the New Testament. What is God’s name in the New Testament? Man is not man’s name but denotes man himself. In the same way, God is not God’s name but denotes God Himself. As man has a name, so God has a name. In the New Testament God’s name is not only Jesus. Jesus is the name of God as our Savior but not the New Testament name of the Triune God. The name of our Savior is Jesus Christ, but the name of our God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Hallelujah, what a revelation this is! The name of the God whom we worship, serve, love, and experience is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

After this song and reading the comments from others on this platform I realized and noticed a great change in my life today and promised myself to include this song in my daily meditation, in Jesus Christ name, Amen.

Re-translation of stanza 1:

1. Praise Father, whence all blessings spring;

Praise Son, redemption finishing;

Praise Spirit, working to apply& mdash;

Praise God with voices lifted high.

Formerly, God was outside of man and had nothing to do with man; there was a great distance between God and man. However, the Triune God desires to transmit Himself into us. In order for the Triune God to fulfill this desire, God the Father is the source, God the Son is the course, and God the Spirit is the flow (2 Cor. 13:14). This thought is expressed in the second stanza of a hymn in our hymnal: "Praise God the Father who's the source; / Praise God the Son who is the course; / Praise God the Spirit who's the flow; / Praise God, our portion here below!" (Hymns, #8). The Spirit is revealed as the flow of the Trinity in Revelation 22:1. This verse says that the river of water of life, a symbol of the Spirit, proceeds out of the throne of God and of the Lamb in the middle of the street (cf. John 7:37-39). This indicates that the Spirit as the river of water of life flows and that this river has not only a source from which it flows but also a course, a way in which the source flows. In Revelation 22:1 the Triune God, the Divine Being, is portrayed as living water in three aspects: the source, the course, and the flow. God the Father is the source of the river of water of life, God the Son is the course of this river, and God the Spirit is the flow of the river. In the New Jerusalem the river of water of life spirals down from the throne in the middle of the golden street to water the whole city. This is a picture of the transmission of the Triune God as living water into the believers. When the Spirit as the flow comes to reach us, the entire Triune God is transmitted into us.
