 Listen! Melodious, soul stirring is the song of praise that the cherubs render to Jehovah: "Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah God the Almighty, who was and who is and who is coming."

He is also "the King of eternity, "always the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end." (1 Timothy 1:17; Revelation 22:13) The cherubs take no rest periods as they proclaim the matchless quality of Jehovah before all creation.  

The heaven of heavens resounds with praises to Jehovah! John's description continues: "And whenever the living creatures offer glory and honor and thanksgiving to the one seated upon the throne, the one that lives forever and ever, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying: 'You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created.'
