Holy, Holy, Holy

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty,
G/B   C  G/B Am D7 G Em  G/D         D D7    G G7
Early in the morning our songs shall rise to Thee.
C     Am    G C   F    F/G     C G/B

Am  C        F  C/E   Dm Dm/C Gsus G7 C
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 shall be.


Holy, holy, holy, though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see.
Only Thou are holy; there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in power, in love and 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.
