Holy God we Praise Thy Name
Clarence A Walworth (1820-1900)
translated from Ignace Franz (1719-90)

1 Holy God, we praise Thy Name; 5 Thou art King of glory, Christ:
Lord of all, we bow before Thee! Son of God, yet born of Mary;
All on earth Thy scepter claim, For us sinners sacrificed,
All in Heaven above adore Thee; And to death a tributary:
Infinite Thy vast domain, First to break the bars of death,
Everlasting is Thy reign Thou has opened Heaven to faith.

2 Hark! the loud celestial hymn 6 From Thy high celestial home,
Angel choirs above are raising, Judge of all, again returning,
Cherubim and seraphim, We believe that Thou shalt come
In unceasing chorus praising; In the dreaded doomsday morning;
Fill the heavens with sweet accord: When Thy voice shall shake the earth,
Holy, holy, holy, Lord And the startled dead come forth.

3 Holy Father, Holy Son, 7 Therefore do we pray Thee, Lord:


Holy Spirit, Three we name Thee; Help Thy servants whom, redeeming
While in essence only One, By Thy precious blood out-poured,
Undivided God we claim Thee; Thou hast saved from Satan’s scheming.
And adoring bend the knee, Give to them eternal rest
While we own the mystery. In the glory of the blest

4 Lo! the apostolic train 8 Spare Thy people, Lord, we pray,


Join the sacred Name to hallow; By a thousand snares surrounded:
Prophets swell the loud refrain, Keep us without sin today,
And the white robed martyrs follow; Never let us be confounded.
And from morn to set of sun, Lo, I put my trust in Thee;
Through the Church the song goes Never, Lord, abandon me.
on.
