Holy is the Lord

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting upon his[a] throne, high and exalted. The train of his robe filled the Temple. The seraphim stood above him. Each had six wings:[b] with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he was flying. They kept on calling to each other:[c]

“Holy, holy, holy[d] is the Lord of the Heavenly Armies!
    The whole earth is full of his glory!”
