468. Let All the World in Every Corner Sing

Let all the world in every corner sing,
My God and King!

1 The heavens are not too high,
God's praise may thither fly;
The earth is not too low,
God's praises there may grow.
Let all the world in every corner sing,
My God and King!

2 The church with psalms must shout:
No door can keep them out;
But, above all, the heart
Must bear the longest part.
Let all the world in every corner sing,
My God and King!
