Like lots of hymns, this has separate verses that address God (the creator), Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Unlike most hymns, they're out of order; Jesus, also known as the "second person of the Trinity," gets verse 3 while the Spirit gets verse 2. The last verse is to "Three-personed God" aka the Trinity as a whole, which is a fairly typical end-verse structure.

I'm guessing that "springtime bud and flow'r" is the reason this wound up in the Lent section because northern hemisphere bias, it's one of those vague ones that could go anywhere.
