12. Holy God, We Praise Thy Name

1 Holy God, we praise Thy name;
Lord of all, we bow before Thee;
All on earth Thy scepter claim,
All in heaven above adore Thee:
Infinite Thy vast domain,
Everlasting is Thy 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 Holy Father, holy Son,
Holy Spirit: three we name Thee,
Though in essence only one;
Undivided God we claim Thee,
And adoring, bend the knee
While we sing our praise to Thee.

Amen.
