All Creatures Of Our God And King - 4 Him Lyrics

Words: Francis of Assisi, cir­ca 1225 (Can­ti­co di frat­re so­le, Song of Bro­ther Sun). He wrote this hymn short­ly be­fore his death, but it was not pub­lished for al­most 400 years. Trans­lat­ed to Eng­lish by Wil­liam H. Drap­er for a child­ren's Whit­sun­tide fes­ti­val in Leeds, Eng­land; first ap­peared in the Pub­lic School Hymn Book, 1919.

All creatures of our God and King
Lift up your voice and with us sing
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Your burning sun with golden beam
Your silver moon with softer gleam
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
Your rushing wind and breezes soft
Your clouds that sail in heaven along
O praise Him, Alleluia!
Your rising morn in praise rejoice
Your lights of evening find a voice
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him all creatures here below
Praise Him above ye heavenly host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Let all things their Creator bless
And worship God in humbleness
O praise Him, Alleluia!
O praise the Father, praise the Son!
Praise the Spirit, Three in One!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
