Holy, Holy, Holy (11/30/07)

Holy Holy Holy, Lord God Almighty!
Even from the depths of sin my song shall rise to Thee;
There is a sign at the sight of Thee, merciful and mighty!
God in three persons, blessed Trinity!

Holy Holy Holy, I can see your beauty;
In the works you've made on earth, the heavens and the sea!
There is a sign at the sight of Thee, great is your majesty!
Perfect in power, in love and purity.

Holy Holy Holy, sin cannot veil thee
Though all mankind looks away, Thy glory sets us free!
Only thou art holy, there is none beside Thee,
Grace that redeems us, blessed Trinity!

Holy Holy Holy, Lord God Almighty!
Peace will follow with you when your Kingdom comes to be!
There is a sign at the sight of Thee, there is none beside Thee,
God in three persons, blessed Trinity!
