The Hymnal and Order of Service ‎#316

316. Jehovah, Thee We Glorify

1 Jehovah, Thee we glorify,
Ruler upon Thy throne on high!
O let Thy Word
Thro' all the earth be heard.
Holy, holy, holy art Thou, O Lord.

2 Thou earnest gently for Thy flock;
Thy Church, firm-founded on the Rock,
No pow'rs dismay
Until Thy dreadful day.
Holy, holy, holy art Thou, O Lord.

3 All nations, in her fold comprised,
Shall bow their knees unto the Christ,
All tongues shall raise
Their orisons and praise:
Holy, holy, holy art Thou, O Lord.

4 Around Thy throne the countless throng
At last in triumph swell the song,
When Cherubim
Shall answer Seraphim:
Holy, holy, holy art Thou, O Lord.

Amen.
