Tune: | GROSSER GOTT |
1 Holy God, we praise Your name;
Lord of all, we bow before You;
All on earth Your scepter claim;
all in heaven above adore You.
Infinite Your vast domain;
everlasting is Your reign.
2 Hark! the glad celestial hymn
angel choirs above are raising;
cherubim and seraphim,
in unceasing chorus praising,
fill the heavens with sweet accord:
holy, holy, holy Lord.
3 Lo! the apostolic train
joins Your sacred name to hallow;
prophets swell the glad refrain,
and the white robed martyrs follow.
And from morn to set of sun,
through the church the song goes on.
4 Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit: three we name You,
though in essence only one;
undivided God we claim You,
and adoring bend the knee
while we praise the mystery.
