Amen. This is the eternal anthem of heaven, the cry of the seraphim that resounds through the throne room of God. To declare "Holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty" is to join the highest order of worship, acknowledging God's absolute moral purity, His set-apartness, and His ultimate power over all creation.
This sacred proclamation is found in the visions of both the prophet Isaiah and the apostle John:
"And one called to another and said: 'Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!'"
- Isaiah 6:3 (ESV)
"And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say, 'Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!'"
- Revelation 4:8 (ESV)
A Prayer of Awe and Worship
Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God Almighty,
Heaven and earth are full of Your glory! We are humbled and awestruck in Your presence. You are unlike anything or anyone else—perfect in power, love, justice, and wisdom.
Forgive us for the times we have treated You as common or approached You with casual irreverence. Cleanse our lips and our hearts, that we might offer You the worship You deserve.
We join the unceasing chorus of angels, elders, and every creature. We add our voices to the song of the universe: Holy, holy, holy are You, Lord God Almighty!
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
A Poem: "Holy, Holy is the Lord"
"Holy, Holy is the Lord"
The seraphim their voices raise,
In ceaseless,wondrous, holy praise.
With wings they cover up their face,
Before the Throne of truth and grace.
“Holy, holy, holy!” is their cry,
As the sound of worship fills the sky.
The Lord God Almighty,powerful and true,
Makes all things glorious and new.
The pillars of the threshold shake,
With the sound the creatures make.
And all the earth,a fragile vase,
Is filled the glory of His grace.
So let my voice now join the sound,
On this hallowed,holy ground.
With all that is,and is to be,
I cry,“Holy, Lord, to Thee!”
Holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,
The author of our sacred story.
We worship You,with all our breath,
Our King who conquered sin and death.
May this truth fill you with reverence and joy today. You serve a God who is perfectly holy and eternally mighty. In His presence, there is fullness of joy.
