HOLY, HOLY, HOLY

Lyrics

Verse 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
Blessed Trinity

Verse 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 were and are
And evermore shalt be

Verse 3
Holy, holy, holy, though the darkness hide thee
Though the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see
Only thou art holy, there is none beside thee
Perfect in power
In love and purity

Verse 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

Sample Introduction

Revelation 4:8 depicts four living creatures, gathered around the throne of God, praising him and saying repeatedly, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come.” Our God is holy, everlasting and worthy of all glory. We praise him because he is perfect in love, he is merciful to his people, and he is mighty to save.
