Hive Open Mic Week 157: "Holy, Holy, Holy" (Cover, Hymn)

No other hymn encapsulates the glories of the God we worship than this one, to me... the poem was written by Reginald Heber in 1826, and I have chosen the first three stanzas...

1 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!

2 Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore thee,
casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
which wert and art and evermore shalt be.

3 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.
