Author: Anon.; Clarence Alphonsus Walworth Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #276 (1995) Meter: 7.8.7.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Holy God, we praise your name;
Sovereign God, we bow before you:
All on earth your scepter claim,
all the heavenly hosts 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 joys aflame:
holy, holy, is your name.
3 All apostles join the strain
as your sacred name they hallow;
Prophets swell the glad refrain,
and the blessed 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,
While in essence only one,
undivided God, we claim you;
So we gather reverently
to adore the mystery.
