Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #185 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes Lyrics: 1 Holy, holy, holy Lord,
God of hosts, eternal King,
By the heavens and earth adored;
Angels and archangels sing,
Chanting everlastingly
To the blessed Trinity.
2 Thousands, tens of thousands stand,
Spirits blest, before thy throne,
Speeding thence at Thy command,
And, when Thy commands is done,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessèd Trinity.
3 Cherubim and seraphim
Vail their faces with their wings;
Eyes of angels are too dim
To behold the King of kings,
While they sing eternally
To the blessèd Trinity.
4 Thee apostles, prophets Thee,
Thee the noble martyr band,
Praise with solemn jubilee,
Thee, the Church in every land;
Singing everlastingly
To the blessèd Trinity.
5 Hallelujah! Lord, to Thee,
Father, Son and Holy Ghost;
Godhead one, and Persons three;
Join we with the heavenly host,
Singing everlastingly
To the blessèd Trinity.
Amen. Topics: God Eternal and Unchangeable; God Holiness of; God Triune; Holy Spirit Worshiped; Praise to the Holy Trinity; Holy Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: HALLETT
