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
You are Lord, You are Lord
You reign eternally
You are Lord God Almighty
