CPWI Hymnal ‎#218

218. From all that dwell below the skies

1 From all that dwell below the skies
let the Creator's praise arise:
alleluia, alleluia.
Let the Redeemer's name be sung
through every land by every tongue.
Alleluia ...

2 Eternal are thy mercies, Lord;
eternal truth attends thy word:
alleluia, alleluia.
Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore,
till suns shall rise and set no more.
Alleluia...
