1 Let every Creature join
To praise th' Eternal God;
Ye heav'nly Hosts the Song begin
And sound his Name abroad.
2 Thou Sun with golden Beams
And Moon with paler Rays,
Ye starry Lights, ye sparkling Flames,
Shine to your Maker's Praise.
3 He built those Worlds above
And fixt their wrondrous Frame;
By his Command they stand or move,
And ever speak his Name.
4 Ye Vapours, when ye rise
Or fall in Showers, or Snow;
Ye Thunders murm'ring round the Skies
His Power and glory shew.
5 Wind, Hail, and flashing Fire,
Agree to praise the Lord,
When ye in vengeful Storms conspire
To execute his Word.
6 By all his Works above
His Honours be exprest;
But those who taste his saving Love
Should sing his Praises best.
