The Celebration Hymnal ‎#3

3. Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty

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, blessed Trinity!

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,
Which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

3 Holy, holy, holy! tho' the darkness hide Thee,
Tho' the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see.
Only Thou art holy-- there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in pow'r, in love, in purity.

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, blessed Trinity!
