Yes! That is right!I didn't know until recently that when we talk about God being the Lord of hosts that the word "host" means army. So in the Mass when we say, "Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts" what we are saying is "Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of [angelic] armies" Related to this is how the Church on earth is called the Church Militant. Anyway, just wanted to share.
In the Latin version of this prayer, it goes like this:
Sanctus [3X] Dominus Deus Sabaoth.
That Sabaoth is an untranslated version of the Hebrew " יהוה צבאות" transliterated as "Yahweh Tzevaot" or "Sabaoth" which means "Army".
The Lord Himself is a King of a massive army that is even greater than all of our military forces combined. Such is a thing that brings extreme awe into all of humanity's sight. Who knows what, that army might even cover all of space regardless of their shapes and sizes. Like galaxies clustering one after another while we here on Earth are just marble balls or even smaller, an airsoft pellet that gazed upon them in their sheer number yet their King is greater than them altogether.
