Written by Reginald Heber in the early 19th century, “Holy, Holy, Holy” is among the most beloved and adored songs in Christian liturgy. Often performed in churches, especially on Trinity Sunday, this is a song of thanks to the Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

  1. Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!**
    Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
    Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!
    God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
  1. Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,
    Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
    Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,
    Which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.
  2. 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, and purity.
  3. 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!
