Holy Holy
Robin Mark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is the Lord God Almighty.
Holy holy, holy holy
Is the song around the throne.
Where the angels and the elders gather
There in sweet assembly,
Singing holy, singing holy
Is the Lord our God.
Worthy worthy, worthy worthy
Is the Lamb who was slain for me
Worthy worthy, worthy worthy,
Is the song within my heart.
I could choose to spend eternity
With this my sole refrain,
Singing worthy, singing worthy
Is the Lord our God.
The Way, the Truth,
The Life, the Light,
The King, the great I Am.
My life, my all, my every breath,
The Rock on which I stand.
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus,
How You suffered and died for us.
Oh Jesus, oh Jesus,
But that tomb is empty now.
And I long to gaze upon Your throne
And all Your risen glory,
Singing Jesus, singing Jesus
Is the Lord of all.
Holy holy, holy holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
Singing holy, singing holy
Is the Lord our God.

I sang this song as a young teen, had this song played at my wedding, I play this song around my babies and now teens, share it with friends, and one day I want it played at my funeral. Such a needed life focus. Praise you God, thank you for letting me fall in love and live for you from a young age. May my children and any generation after them do the same, please. May my Friends and their children too worship you now and in Heaven.

@nccrchurchunusual
Marysue I agree. So much "gospel music" is all about stage presence and emotionalism; black lights & smoke. True Worship music is not about our flesh or even talent of the singer- its all about lifting high the Holy Name of Jesus our great Treasure! I tend to like choir music bc it takes the spotlight off one person. This song is wonderful and I sing it at home alone at the top of my lungs, sometimes on my knees. Not very professional, but Im ok with that. Lol.
