holy, holy, holy, lord god almighty
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty.
Early in the morning our song shall rise to you.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
God in three persons; blessed trinity!
Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore you;
casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
cherubim and seraphim falling down before you,
who were, and are, and evermore shall be.
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide you;
though the eye of sinful man your glory may not see;
only you are holy; there is none beside you;
perfect in pow'r, in love, and purity.
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All your works shall praise your name in earth and sky and sea.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
God in three persons; blessed trinity!
“Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all round, even under its wings. Day and night they never stop saying: ‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.’”
