Lord of all, we bow be-fore Thee!
All on earth Thy scep-ter claim,
All in heav-en a-bove a-dore Thee;
In-fin-ite Thy vast do-main,
Ev-er-last-ing is Thy reign.
Hark! the loud ce-les-tial hymn
An-gel choirs a-bove are rais-ing,
Cher-you-bim and ser-a-phim,
In un-ceas-ing chor-us prais-ing;
Fill the heav-ens with sweet ac-cord:
Ho-ly, ho-ly, ho-ly, Lord.
Lo! the a-pos-tol-ic train
Join the sa-cred Name to hal-low;
Pro-phets swell the loud re-frain,
And the white-robed mar-tyrs fol-low;
And from morn to set of sun,
Through the Church the song goes on.
Ho-ly Fa-ther, Ho-ly Son,
Ho-ly Spir-it, Three we name Thee;
While in es-sense on-ly One,
Un-di-vid-ed God we claim Thee;
And a-dor-ing bend the knee,
While we own the mys-ter-y.
Ho-ly God, we praise Thy Name; Lord of all, we bow be-fore Thee! All on earth Thy scep-ter claim, All in heav-en a-bove a-dore Thee; In-fin-ite Thy vast do-main, Ev-er-last-ing is Thy reign. Hark! the loud ce-les-tial hymn An-gel choirs a-bove are rais-ing, Cher-you-bim and ser-a-phim, In un-ceas-ing chor-us prais-ing; Fill the heav-ens with sweet ac-cord: Ho-ly, ho-ly, ho-ly, Lord. Lo! the a-pos-tol-ic train Join the sa-cred Name to hal-low; Pro-phets swell the loud re-frain, And the white-robed mar-tyrs fol-low; And from morn to set of sun, Through the Church the song goes on. Ho-ly Fa-ther, Ho-ly Son, Ho-ly Spir-it, Three we name Thee; While in es-sense on-ly One, Un-di-vid-ed God we claim Thee; And a-dor-ing bend the knee, While we own the mys-ter-y. Explain Request ×
