Lyrics
Holy, holy, holy, Lord almighty,
Hallelujah
We praise you
Holy, holy, holy, Lord almighty,
Hallelujah
We praise you
The angels bow down
Declaring your majesty
Demons tremble at
Sound of your name
You're high and mighty
Lord of glory
Your light shines brighter
Than the morning star
The angels bow down
Declaring your majesty
Demons tremble at
Sound of your name
You're high and mighty
Lord of glory
Your light shines brighter
Than the morning star
Holy holy holy king of
The heaven a strong tower
You reign Lord
The angels bow down
Declaring your majesty
Demons tremble at
Sound of your name

Meaning & Inspiration
Holy The Angels Bow centers on the absolute holiness and majesty of God. Its repeated declaration of holy echoes heavenly worship, while the images of angels bowing and evil trembling present divine authority as unmatched. The language of glory, radiant light, and the morning star keeps the song focused on adoration rather than on human achievement. Repetition gives the central confession the character of a gathered congregation returning again and again to the same truth.
The song also joins reverence with confidence. God is named as high and mighty, a strong tower, and the reigning Lord, so worship arises from both awe and security. Revelation 4:8 closely parallels the repeated proclamation of holiness, and Philippians 2:10 provides a clear biblical connection to every knee bowing before Jesus. The closing affirmation that none compares with the Lord reinforces the song’s single-minded praise of God’s unique glory.
