Text: | Let all the world in every corner sing |
Author: | G. Herbert (1593-1632) |
Tune: | HERBERT |
Composer: | H. A. Dyer (1878-1917) |
1 Let all the world in every corner sing,
'My God and King!'
The heavens are not too high,
his praise may thither fly;
the earth is not too low,
his praises there may grow:
let all the world in every corner sing,
'My God and King!'
2 Let all the world in every corner sing,
'My God and King!'
The church with psalms must shout —
no door can keep them out;
but above all, the heart
must bear the longest part:
let all the world in every corner sing,
'My God and King!'
