Representative Text

1 Men and children everywhere,
With sweet music fill the air!
Nations, come, your voices raise
To the Lord in hymns of praise!
Join the angel song,
All the worlds to Him belong!

Refrain
Holy, holy,
To our God all glory be!

2 Morning, evening, bless His name,
Skies with crimson clouds aflame,
Rainbow arch, His covenant sign,
Countless stars by night that shine!
Through His far domain,
Love is King where He doth reign! [Refrain]

3 Storm and flood and ocean’s roar,
Breakers crashing on the shore,
Waterfalls that never sleep,
Towering mountain, canyon deep,
Tell ye forth His might,
Lord of life and truth and right! [Refrain]

Amen.
