1 Let all creation bless the Lord,
till heaven with praise is ringing.
Sun, moon, and stars, peal out a chord,
stir up the angels' singing.
Sing, wind and rain! Sing, snow and sleet!
Make music, day, night, cold and heat!
Exalt the God who made you.
2 All living things upon the earth,
green fertile hills and mountains,
sing to the God who gave you birth!
Be joyful, springs and fountains,
lithe waterlife, bright airborne birds,
wild roving beasts, tame flocks and herds!
Exalt the God who made you.
3 O men and women everywhere,
lift up a hymn of glory.
Let all who know God's steadfast care
tell out salvation's story.
No tongue be silent--sing your part,
you humble souls and meek of heart!
Exalt the God who made you.
