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!



Refrain:

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 moon, in praise rejoice,

Ye lights of evening, find a voice!



Refrain:

O praise Him! O praise Him!

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!



Thou flowing water, pure and clear,

Make music for thy Lord to hear,

O praise Him! Alleluia!

Thou fire so masterful and bright,

That givest man both warmth and light.



Refrain:

O praise Him! O praise Him!

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!



Dear mother earth, who day by day

Unfoldest blessings on our way,

O praise Him! Alleluia!

The flowers and fruits that in thee grow,

Let them His glory also show.



Refrain:

O praise Him! O praise Him!

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!



And all ye men of tender heart,

Forgiving others, take your part,

O sing ye! Alleluia!

Ye who long pain and sorrow bear,

Praise God and on Him cast your care!



Refrain:

O praise Him! O praise Him!

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!



And thou most kind and gentle Death,

Waiting to hush our latest breath,

O praise Him! Alleluia!

Thou leadest home the child of God,

And Christ our Lord the way hath trod.



Refrain:

O praise Him! O praise Him!

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!



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!



Refrain:

O praise Him! O praise Him!

Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!...
