Holy, Holy, Holy

I was driving back to Starkville yesterday, and this song came up on my CD that was in my car. I usually only have my iPod playing, but I had forgotten my connection cord. My sweet friend Rebekah, is always so great about giving me CD's with music that she finds. This CD was a mixture of all songs from Elton John to Sandra McCraken. This was the very last song on there, and I must admit that I replayed it about 5 times. This song has always been one of my favorites, but this version is the absolute best.
This song is all about praising our Lord God Almighty. How much better can it get? Can you imagine in heaven, when all we will be doing is praising our King? I know that great it is to praise him here on earth, but it will be one thousand times better when we are in His presence. Every word of this hymn speaks to my heart. It was exactly what I needed, and such a sweet reminder that we should praise Him all day, every day.

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!

Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,
Who was, and is, and evermore shall 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 pow’r, in love, and purity.

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
