Today’s hymn sung by St Martins in the Fields is: Praise to the Holiest in the Height.
Praise to the Holiest in the height
sung by St Martin’s Voices
1 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise:
in all his words most wonderful,
most sure in all his ways.
2 O loving wisdom of our God!
when all was sin and shame,
a second Adam to the fight
and to the rescue came.
3 O generous love! that he, who smote
in man for man the foe,
the double agony in man
for man should undergo;
4 And in the garden secretly,
and on the Cross on high,
should teach his brethren, and inspire
to suffer and to die.
5 Praise to the Holiest in the height,
and in the depth be praise:
in all his words most wonderful,
most sure in all his ways.
John Henry Newman (1801-1890)
