Don Francisco - Holy Is The Lord of Hosts Lyrics

Holy Is The Lord of Hosts is a short worship song that rests on the vision of Isaiah 6. The opening lines repeat "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts," followed by the declaration that the whole earth is filled with His glory, repeated three times, and a closing line that holy is the Lord. The second section repeats the same words in a different order, and the last section is the declaration about the glory filling the earth before ending on the line that He is holy.

The text follows Isaiah 6:3 almost word for word, with Revelation 4:8 on the living creatures who never stop saying holy and Psalm 72:19 on the earth being filled with His glory. Because there are only a few lines and they repeat, the song is easy to learn and works well as a response in a service, with a reverent, adoring tone and room for the congregation to dwell on the holiness of God.
