HOLY GOD, WE PRAISE THY NAME
Trans: Clarece Walworth
Catholic hymn
Key: G
Time: 3/4
3 3 3-2* 3 -3 -4 -3 3
Ho-ly God, we praise Thy Name;
-4 -4 -4-3 3 -55 -4 -4 -3
Lord of all, we bow be-fore Thee!
3 3 3-2* 3 -3 -4 -3 -3
All on earth Thy scep-ter claim,
-4 -4 -4 -3 3 -5 4 -4 -4 -3
All in Heav�n a-bove a-dore Thee;
-3 -4 4 -4 -3 -4 4 -5
In-fi-nite Thy vast do-main,
6 6 -5 4 -4 4-4 -3 3
Ev-er-last-ing is Thy reign.
Hark! the loud celestial hymn
Angel choirs above are raising,
Cherubim and seraphim,
In unceasing chorus praising;
Fill the heavens with sweet accord:
Holy, holy, holy, Lord.
Lo! the apostolic train
Join the sacred Name to hallow;
Prophets swell the loud refrain,
And the white robed martyrs follow;
And from morn to set of sun,
Through the Church the song goes on.
Holy Father, Holy Son,
Holy Spirit, Three we name Thee;
While in essence only One,
Undivided God we claim Thee;
And adoring bend the knee,
While we own the mystery.
This is a beautiful classic Catholic hymn,
used by the Church for a couple of centuries.
The words are at�trib�ut�ed to Ig�naz Franz,
in Ma�ria The�re�sa�s Ka�thol�isch�es Ge�sang�buch
(Vi�en�na: cir�ca 1774) trans�lat�ed from Ger�man
to Eng�lish by Clar�ence A. Wal�worth, 1858.
It is still sung today in many conservative or traditional Catholic
circles, usually as a Benediction (adoration) hymn.
