All Creatures of Our God and King

by HENRY FRANCIS LYTE, 1793-1847.

All creatures of our God and king.
Lift up your voices and with us sing
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Thou burning sun with golden beam
Thou silver moon with softer gleam
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heaven along,
O praise Him, Alleluia
Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice,
Ye lights of evening, find a voice
Thou flowing water, pure and clear,
Make music for Thy Lord to hear,
Alleluia, alleluia!
Thou fire so masterful and bright,
That givest man both warmth and light
Dear mother earth, who day by day
Unfoldest blessings on our way,
O praise Him, Alleluia
They flowers and fruits that in thee grow
Let them His glory also show
Let all things their creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness,
O praise Him,
Alleluia!Praise, Praise the Father, praise the Son
And praise the Spirit, Three in one.
