Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our songs shall rise to Thee; Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! God in Three Persons, Blessed Trinity! 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 wert and art, and evermore shalt be! 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, in purity! 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. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TRINITIE SUNDAY (FOR A BASE AND TWO TREBLES) by JOSEPH BEAUMONT AN IRISH FANTASY by JOHN FRANKLIN BLUNT I HEAR A VOICE by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS KNOWEST THOU JEHOVAH by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS PRAYER by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS TRINITY CHIMES: ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON by MARGARET ELIZABETH MUNSON SANGSTER TO MICHAL: ON BRINGING HER BREAKFAST IN BED by CHARLES WILLIAMS THREE FACES by WILLIAM STANLEY MERWIN EVENING HYMN by REGINALD HEBER |
