218. Let all the world in every corner sing

1 Let all the world in every corner sing,
'My God and King!'
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!'

2 Let all the world in every corner sing,
'My God and King!'
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 eveery corner sing,
'My God and King!'
