Lyrics

Thee we adore, eter­nal Lord!
We praise Thy name with one acc­ord.
Thy saints, who here Thy good­ness see,
Through all the world do wor­ship Thee,
Through all the world do wor­ship Thee.

To Thee aloud all an­gels cry,
The heav’ns and all the pow­ers on high:
Thee, ho­ly, ho­ly, ho­ly King,
Lord God of hosts, they ev­er sing,
Lord God of hosts, they ev­er sing.

Apostles join the glo­ri­ous throng,
And pro­phets swell th’im­mor­tal song;
Thy mar­tyrs’ no­ble army raise
Eternal an­thems to Thy praise,
Eternal an­thems to Thy praise.

From day to day, O Lord, do we
Exalt and high­ly hon­or Thee!
Thy name we wor­ship and adore,
World with­out end, for­ev­er­more,
World with­out end, for­ev­er­more.
