Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty! by John Bacchus Dykes — Lyrics

VERSE 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! VERSE 2 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.

About Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!

"Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty!" is one of the most universally recognized hymns of adoration, lifting the congregation's voices in profound reverence to the Trinity. With its steady, majestic progression, the song draws singers and listeners alike into a vision of heavenly worship, where saints, cherubim, and seraphim cast down their crowns before the throne.

In the choir loft, this piece is often a staple for Trinity Sunday or as a powerful entrance hymn to set a tone of awe at the beginning of Mass. The verses build a steady progression—from our early morning earthly praise, to the unceasing worship of heaven, acknowledging God's perfect power, love, and purity even when human eyes cannot fully comprehend His glory.

Singing this hymn in four-part harmony brings out the solemn chords that underscore the greatness of God. It is a unifying piece that gathers the whole church, reminding everyone present of the eternal nature of the "God in Three Persons, blessed Trinity."
