Hymnal: Hymns of Glory, Songs of Praise #104 (2008) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 First Line: The Lord of heaven confess Lyrics: 1 The Lord of heaven confess;
on high his glory raise.
Him let all angels bless,
him all his armies praise.
Him glorify
sun, moon, and stars;
ye higher spheres,
and cloudy sky.
2 From God your beings are,
him therefore famous make;
you all created were,
when he the word but spake.
And from that place,
where fixed you be
by his decree,
you cannot pass.
3 Praise God from earth below,
ye dragons, and ye deeps:
fire, hail, clouds, wind, and snow,
whom in command he keeps.
Praise ye his name,
hills great and small,
trees low and tall,
beasts wild and tame.
4 All things that creep or fly.
ye kings, ye vulgar throng,
all princes mean or high;
both men and women young,
even young and old,
exalt his name;
for much his fame
should be extolled.
5 Oh, let God's name be praised
above both earth and sky;
for he his saints hath raised,
and set their horn on high;
even those that be
of Israel's race,
near to his grace,
the Lord praise ye. Topics: Angels; Creation; Praise; Unity of Humanity Scripture: Psalm 148 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. JOHN (Havergal)
