The Hymnal ‎#15

15. Round the Lord in glory seated

1 Round the Lord in glory seated,
Cherubim and seraphim
Filled His temple, and repeated
Each to each th' alternate hymn:
"Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven,
Earth is with Thy fulness stored;
Unto Thee be glory given,
Holy, holy, holy Lord!"

2 Heaven is with Thy glory ringing,
Earth takes up the angel cry,
"Holy, holy, holy," singing,
"Lord of Hosts, Thou Lord Most High!"
"Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven,
Earth is with Thy fulness stored;
Unto Thee be glory given,
Holy, holy, holy Lord!"

3 With His seraph train before Him,
With His holy Church below,
Thus unite we to adore Him,
Bid we thus our anthem flow:
"Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven,
Earth is with Thy fulness stored;
Unto Thee be glory given,
Holy, holy, holy Lord!"

Amen.
