Holy, Holy, Holy!

     In the silence of "A Friendly Shade,"  I could not help but think about our church service today and how the pastor described the Lord.  I agree with him.  There is no way we can describe Holy.  As the pastor stated, "It would be a failure to even attempt to do that.  God is indefinable!"  All I can do is to give Him as much praise as I can for the three descriptive words the pastor used today.  God is glorious in Holiness, Beauty, and Righteousness.   Below is my failure to give Him the praise He deserves.  

 

Holy, Holy, Holy!

Is my Lord in all His glory.

He is the Lord of Hosts;

Let me praise him uppermost.

He is the Lord in all His majesty;

The King who sits upon the throne;

Let me worship Him and Him alone.

 

Holy, Holy, Holy!

Is the Lord in all His beauty.

He is my guiding light;

Let me sing His praises day and night.

He is the King of Kings;

The Lord who reigns on High;

Let me honor Him, not I.

 

Holy, Holy, Holy!

Is my Lord in all his righteousness.

He is the Shepherd and the Lamb;

Let me praise Him for who I am.

He is my Lord, the Lamb of Life;

The One to whom none can compare.

Let me lift His name in prayer.

 

Holy, Holy, Holy!

His glory fills the land.
