In awe and wonder, Lord our God,
we bow before your throne;
such holiness and burning love
are yours and yours alone.
2. Angelic spirits, night and day
adore your name on high.
Eternal Lord in majesty
you hear their ceaseless cry.
3. ‘O holy, holy, holy Lord,
great God of power and might,
all-glorious in heaven and earth,
you reign in realms of light.’
4. Your holiness inspires our fear,
evokes and heals our shame;
your boundless wisdom, awesome power,
unchangeably the same.
5. Salvation comes from you alone
which we can never win;
your love revealed on Calvary
is cleansing for our sin.
6. There is no grace to match your grace,
no love to match your love,
no gentleness of human touch
like that of heaven above.
7. On earth we long for heaven’s joy
where bowed before your throne,
we know you, Father, Spirit, Son,
as God, and God alone.
