1 Holy God, we praise your name;
Lord of all, we bow before you.
all on earth your scepter claim,
all in heaven above adore you.
Infinite your vast domain;
everlasting is your reign.
2 Hark, the loud celestial hymn
angel choirs above are raising;
cherubim and seraphim,
in unceasing chorus praising,
fill the heavens with sweet accord:
""Holy, holy, holy Lord!""
3 Lo, the apostolic train
join your sacred name to hallow;
prophets swell the glad refrain,
and the white-robed martyrs follow;
and from morn to set of sun,
through the church the song goes on.
4 Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit, Three we name you,
while in essence only One;
undivided God, we claim you,
and, adoring, bend the knee
while we sing this mystery.
