Lyics

HOLY, holy, holy! Lord, God Almighty!

Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee,

Holy, holy, holy merciful and mighty!

God over all, and blest eternally.



Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore Thee!

Casting their golden crowns around the crystal sea;

Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,

Who wast and art, and ever more shall be.



Holy, holy, holy, though the darkness hide Thee,

Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory can not see;

Only Thou art holy, there is none beside Thee;

Fearful in praises, working wondrously.



Holy, holy, holy! All Thy works shall praise Thee,

From the heights of heaven to depths of deepest sea;

Holy, holy, holy! Lord, God Almighty!

Thou art the Father of Eternity.
