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, which were, and art, and evermore shalt 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 power, 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!

For I am your God and will still give you aid; I'll strengthen and help you, and cause you to stand, upheld by my righteous omnipotent hand. 3 "When through the deep waters I call you to go, the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow; for I will be with you, your troubles to bless, and sanctify to you your deepest distress. 4 "When through fiery trials your pathway shall lie, my grace, all-sufficient, shall be your supply: the flame shall not hurt you, I only design your dross to consume, and your gold to refine. 5 "The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose I will not -- I will not desert to his foes; that soul, though all hell should endeavour to shake, I'll never -- no, never -- no, never forsake!"
