Verse 1
Heav’nly hosts in ceaseless worship
“Holy, holy, holy” cry;
“He who is, who was, and will be,
God Almighty, Lord most high.”
Praise and honor, pow’r and glory,
Be to Him who reigns alone;
We, with all His hands have fashioned,
Fall before the Father’s throne.
Verse 2
All creation, all redemption,
Join to sing the Savior’s worth;
Lamb of God, whose blood has bought us,
Kings and priests, to reign on earth.
Wealth and wisdom, pow’r and glory,
Honor, might, dominion, praise,
Now be His from all His creatures
And to everlasting days.
