1 All creatures of our God and King,
Lift up your voice and with us sing!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou burning sun with golden beam,
Thou silver moon with softer gleam,
Oh, praise Him! Oh, praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
2 Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heaven along,
Oh, praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice!
Ye lights of evening, find a voice!
Oh, praise Him! Oh, praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
3 Let all things their Creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness.
Oh, praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son,
And praise the Spirit, Three in One!
Oh, praise Him! Oh, praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
