'Twas in the year that King Uzziah died

A vision by Isaiah was espied

A lofty throne

The Lord was set thereon

And with his glory all the temple shone

Bright seraphim were standing round about

Six wings had every of that quire devout

With twain he awesome veiled his face

And so

With twain he dreadful veiled his feet below

With twain did he now hither

Thither fly

And thus aloud did one to other cry

Holy is God

The Lord of Sabaoth

Holy is God

The Lord of Sabaoth

Holy is God

The Lord of Sabaoth

Full of his glory are earth and heaven both

And at their cry the lintels moved apace

And clouds of incense filled the holy place
