Lyics

LET every creature join

To praise the eternal God:

Ye heavenly hosts the song begin,

And sound his name abroad.



Thou sun with golden beams,

And moon with paler rays;

Ye starry lights, ye twinkling flames,

Shine to your Maker's praise.



He built those worlds above,

And fixed their wondrous frame;

By his command they stand or move.

And ever speak his name.



By all his works above,

His honors be exprest;

But saints, who taste his saving love

Should sing his praises best.
