Holy One

Before the mountains found their place
Before the stars were called by name
You spoke the earth into its form
Light broke the night at your command

From dust and breath, you gave us life
You set the seasons, day and night
Your word stands firm through endless time
Oh holy one you reign on high

Let the sound arise
From the depths of every heart
Let the heavens hear who
You truly are

Holy, holy lord most high
Heaven and earth uplift your name
Holy, holy righteous king
Glory surrounds your throne aflame

You walked with fire before our eyes
A pillar burning through the night
You split the sea, you made a way
Your mighty hand, our guiding light

When walls stood strong before your call
They trembled at the trumpet sound
No power formed against your will
No other throne can stand its crown

Let the nations bow
Let the ancient gates be raised
From the dust we rise
To honour all your ways

Holy, holy lord most high
Heaven and earth uplift your name
Holy, holy righteous king
Glory surrounds your throne aflame

Yahweh reigns Yahweh lives
From age to age your kingdom stands
Yahweh strong Yahweh just
The breath of life is in your hands

In the silence you draw near
You calm our hearts, you cast out fear
Your mercy flows like endless streams
Restoring hope in broken end

No gold, no crown, no earthly throne
Could ever claim what's yours alone
All power rests within your word
Eternal God unseen, yet known

We stand in awe we bow our heart
Before the weight of who you are

Holy, holy lord most high
All creation testifies
Holy, holy faithful king
Endless life from you still springs

From ancient days to days unborn
You are the first, you are the last
All that we are, all that we'll be
Rests secure in you alone
