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,
Who was, and is, and evermore shall be.
3 Holy, Holy, Holy! Though the darkness hide thee,
Though the eye made blind by sin thy glory may not see,
Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee,
Perfect in Pow'r, in love, and 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. Scripture: Exodus 15:11 Used With Tune: NICAEA
