10378. Holy, Holy, Holy Lord

1 Holy, holy, holy Lord!
Be Thy glorious name adored!
Lord, Thy mercies never fail;
Hail, celestial goodness, hail!

2 Tho’ unworthy, Lord, Thine ear,
Our humble hallelujahs hear:
Purer praise we hope to bring,
When around Thy throne we sing.

3 While on earth ordained to stay,
Guide our footsteps in Thy way,
Till we come to reign with Thee,
And all Thy glorious greatness see.

4 Then no tongue shall silent be,
And all shall join in harmony;
That, thro’ Heav’n’s all-spacious round,
Thy praise, O God, may ever sound.

5 Lord, Thy mercies never fail:
Hail, celestial goodness, hail!
Holy, holy, holy Lord,
Be Thy glorious name adored!
