1. All creatures of our God and King,
Lift up your voice and with us sing!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou burning sun with golden beam,
Thou silver moon with softer gleam,
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia!
2. Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heaven along,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice!
Ye lights of evening, find a voice!
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia!
3. Let all things their creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father; praise the Son,
And praise the Spirit, Three in One!
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia!
