The Hymnal ‎#74

74. Let the whole creation cry

1 Let the whole creation cry,
"Glory to the Lord on high!"
Heaven and earth, awake and sing,
"God is good and therefore King."

2 Praise Him, all ye hosts above,
Ever bright and fair in love!
Sun and moon, uplift up your voice,
Night and stars, in God rejoice!

3 Men and women, young and old,
Raise the anthem manifold;
And let children’s happy hearts
In this worship bear their parts.

4 From the north to southern pole
Let the mighty chorus roll:
Holy, holy, holy One!
Glory be to God alone!

Amen.
