Holy, Holy, Holy
Verse 1
Holy, Holy, Holy!
Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning
our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, Holy, Holy,
Merciful and Mighty!
God in three Persons,
Blessèd Trinity!
Verse 2
Holy, Holy, Holy!
All the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden
Crowns around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim
falling down before Thee,
Who wert, and art,
And evermore shalt be.
Verse 3
Holy, Holy, Holy!
Though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holy;
There is none beside Thee,
Perfect in power,
In love, and purity.
Verse 4
Holy, Holy, Holy!
Lord God Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy Name
In earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, Holy, Holy;
Merciful and Mighty!
God in three Persons,
Blessèd Trinity!
