115. Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty

1 Holy, holy, holy, Lord, God Almighty
Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee,
Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty,
Father all glorious endless praise to thee.

2 Holy, holy, Holy! all the saints adore thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and Seraphim falling down before him,
Which wast and art and evermore shalt be.

3 Holy, holy, holy! tho' darkness hide thee,
Tho' the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see,
Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee,
Perfect in pow'r 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;
Father all glorious, endless praise to thee.
