In Jewish vernacular, repetition is used to emphasize a point. Of all God’s attributes, there is only one in the Bible where repetition of three is used: holy, holy, holy. Reginald Heber wrote this hymn for Trinity Sunday in hopes to shine light on how holy our three-in-one God is.

Ideas:

This arrangement comes in two versions: blended and modern. The differences are:

[ico type="icon-ok"] Blended has a busier, more typical HymnCharts piano part, modern has a more sparse piano part more similar to what I'd actually play in a full praise band.

[ico type="icon-ok"] Blended has orchestrated parts, modern has synth parts.

[ico type="icon-ok"] Modern has both synth strings and synthesizer parts.

[ico type="icon-ok"] Modern has synth loop MP3s.

Try using Holy (Lord Almighty) with these popular praise songs:

LISTEN Holy with Oceans
Try following Oceans with Holy (Lord Almighty). They're both in D major, start on a minor chord an have the same feel.

LISTEN Holy with Holy Spirit
Try following Holy (Lord Almighty) with Holy Spirit. Both are in D major. Holy (Lord Almighty) actually ends on the 4th chord (G) so, as you'll hear in the soundclip, Holy Spirit then resolves to D major as it flows directly out of Holy (Lord Almighty).

LISTEN Holy with It Is Well
Try following Holy (Lord Almighty) with Bethel's It Is Well. Holy (Lord Almighty) ends on the 4th chord (G), allowing a great worship flow option of using It Is Well in G.

LISTEN Holy with Ever Be
Try following Holy (Lord Almighty) with Bethel's Ever Be. Holy (Lord Almighty) ends on the 4th chord (G) so, as you'll hear in the soundclip, Ever Be actually resolves to D major as it flows directly out of Holy (Lord Almighty).

MP3 Problems?

Several subscribers have had problems downloading MP3s. Here are the 2 most typical problems and solutions:

1. How do I download the MP3s? MP3s and (if available) multitrack WAV downloads are found under the "tracks" tab. You can download these MP3s (or any files) to your computer by RIGHT clicking the button, then a little box will pop up with options. Select something like "save as"or "save link as" to manually save the MP3s to your computer where you can then burn a CD, email it to your praise team or upload it to a worship planning website.

2. The MP3 won't play in iTunes (or other media player.) All HymnCharts MP3s are free from ALL copy protection and can be used any way you want. Some people are clicking the MP3 button dragging it to iTunes or another media player. This won't work (you're actually just dragging the image file of the button!) Download the MP3 using the instructions above, then you can access it through your media player.
