1 Let the whole creation cry,
"Glory be to God on high!"
Heaven and earth, awake and sing,
to your God your praises bring.
Sun and moon, uplift your voice,
night and stars, in God rejoice;
sunshine, darkness cloud, and storm,
rain and snow in praise perform.

2 Chant in honor, ocean fair;
earth, soft rushing through the air;
birds, with morn and dew elate,
sing with joy at heaven's gate.
Let the blossoms of the earth
join the universal mirth;
men and women, young and old,
raise the anthem manifold.

3 You to whom the arts belong,
add your voices to the song;
bards of knowledge and of law,
to the glorious circle draw.
From the north to southern pole
let the mighty chorus roll:
"Holy, holy, holy," crry;
"Glory be to God on high!"
