834. Praise for Creation and Redemption

1 While heavenly hosts their anthems sing,
In realms above the sky,
Let worms of earth their tribute bring,
And laud the Lord most high.

2 In thankful notes your voices raise,
Ye ransomed of the Lord;
And sing the eternal Father’s praise,
The God by all adored.

3 All creatures to his bounty owe
Their being and their breath;
But greatest gratitude should flow
In men redeemed from death.

4 His only Son he deigned to give;
What love this gift declares!
And all that in the Son believe,
Eternal life is theirs.
