Lyrics

Holy God, we praise thy Name,
Lord of all, we bow before thee;
all on earth thy scepter claim,
all in heaven above adore thee.
Hark, the loud celestial hymn
angel choirs above are raising;
Cherubim and seraphim in chorus praising:
Holy, holy, holy Lord! Three in One we name thee;
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Lord our God we claim thee.
Holy, holy, holy Lord, let us all adore thee;
Holy, holy, holy Lord! Lord of all, we bow before thee.
