Tune: | MACDOUGALL |

Refrain:
Let all the world in every corner sing, my God and King!
Let all the world in every corner sing, my God and King!
1 The heavens are not too high,
his praise may thither fly;
the earth is not too low,
his praises there may grow.
Let all the world in every corner sing, my God and King! [Refrain]
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!
Amen.
