  1. 1Round the Lord in glory seated
  2. Cherubim and seraphim
  3. Filled His temple, and repeated
  4. Each to each th' alternate hymn:
  5. "Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven,
  6. Earth is with Thy fullness stored;
  7. Unto Thee be glory given,
  8. Holy, holy, holy Lord!"
  9. 2Heav'n is still with glory ringing,
  10. Earth takes up the angels' cry,
  11. "Holy, holy, holy," singing,
  12. "Lord of Hosts, the Lord most high."
  13. With his seraph train before Him,
  14. With His holy Church below,
  15. Thus unite we to adore Him,
  16. Bid we thus our anthem flow.
  17. 3"Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven,
  18. Earth is with its fullness stored;
  19. Unto Thee be glory given,
  20. Holy, holy, holy, Lord!"
  21. Thus Thy glorious name confessing,
  22. We adopt the angels' cry,
  23. "Holy, holy, holy," blessing
  24. Thee, the Lord of Hosts most high.
