Angels Holy, High and Lowly

Author: John Blackie Meter: 8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 97 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Angels holy, high and lowly, Sing the praises of the Lord! Earth and sky, all living nature, Man the stamp of thy creator, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 2. Sun and moon bright, night and moonlight, Starry temples azure-floored, Cloud and rain, and wild winds’ madness, Sons of God that shout for gladness, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 3. Ocean hoary, tell His glory, Cliffs, where tumbling seas have roared, Pulse of waters, blithely beating, Wave advancing, wave retreating, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 4. Rock and highland, wood and island, Crag where eagle’s pride hath soared; Mighty mountains, purple breasted, Peaks cloud-cleaving, snowy crested, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 5. Rolling river, praise Him ever, From the mountain’s deep vein poured; Silver fountain, clearly gushing, Troubled torrent, madly rushing, Praise ye, praise ye, God the Lord! 6. Praise Him ever, bounteous giver! Praise Him, Father, Friend and Lord! Each glad soul its free course winging, Each blithe voice its free song singing, Praise the great and mighty Lord! Used With Tune: LLANHERNE Text Sources: A canticle from the Septuagint; Trans: Bible Hymn Book, by Horatius Bonar, 1845

Small Church Music

Editors: John S. Blackie Description: History The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid 1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano with organ versions. About the Recordings All recordings are in MP3 format. Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per month. The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse. Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo and pitch to suit their local needs. Mobile App We have partnered with the developer of the popular NetTracks mobile app to offer the Small Church Music collection as a convenient mobile app. Experience the beloved Small Church Music collection through this iOS app featuring nearly 10,000 high-quality hymn recordings that can be organized into custom setlists and downloaded for offline use—ideal for worship services without musicians, congregational practice, and personal devotion. The app requires a small fee to cover maintenance costs. Please note: While Hymnary.org hosts this music collection, technical support for the app is provided exclusively by the app developer, not by Hymnary.org staff. LicensingCopyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted.
