Holy, Holy, Holy! All the saints adore Thee,

Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy ses;

Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,

Which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be!

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, in purity!
