C. M.
Holy, holy, holy Lord.
O God, we praise thee, and confess
That thou the only Lord
And everlasting Father art,
By all the earth adored.
2 To thee all angels cry aloud,
To thee the powers on high,
Both cherubim and seraphim,
Continually do cry—
3 O holy, holy, holy Lord,
When heavenly hosts obey;
The world is with the glory filled
Of thy majestic sway.
4 The apostles’ glorious company,
The prophets crowned with light,
With all the martyrs’ noble host,
Thy constant praise recite.
5 The holy Church, throughout the world,
O Lord, confesses thee,
That thou th’ eternal Father art
Of boundless majesty.
Patrick.
