Holy God, we praise your name; Lord of all, we bow before you;
all on earth your scepter claim, all in heav'n above adore you.
Infinite your vast domain, everlasting is your reign.
Hark, the loud celestial hymn, angel choirs above are raising;
cherubim and seraphim in unceasing chorus praising,
fill the heav'ns with sweet accord: "Holy, holy, holy Lord."
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.
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.
