580. From all who live beneath the skies

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

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