Author: Reginald Heber (1783-1826) Hymnal: Hymns of Glory, Songs of Praise #111 (2008) Meter: 11.12.12.10 Scripture: Psalm 69:34 Lyrics: 1 Holy, holy, holy! Lord God almighty!
early in the morning our song shall rise to thee;
holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessèd 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,
God ever living through eternity.
3 Holy, holy, holy! though the darkness hide thee,
though the sinful human eye 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!
