Holy, holy, holy Lord,
God the Father, and the Word,
God the Comforter, receive
|: Blessings more than we can give! :|
One, inexplicably three,
One, in simplest unity:
God, incline thy gracious ear,
|: Us thy lisping creatures hear. :|
Thee while man, the earth-born, sings,
Angels shrink within their wings;
Prostrate seraphim above
|: Breathe unutterable love. :|
Happy they who never rest
With thy heavenly presence blest!
They the heights of glory see,
|: Sound the depths of Deity! :|
Fain with them our souls would vie;
Sink as low, and mount as high;
Fall, o'erwhelmed with love, or soar;
|: Shout, or silently adore! :|
