From All That Dwell Below The Skies



From all that dwell below the skies
Let the creator’s praise arise
Alleluia, alleluia!
Let the redeemer’s name be sung
Through every land by every tongue.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

Eternal are your mercies, Lord;
Eternal truth attends your Word;
Alleluia, alleluia!
Your praise shall sound from shore to shore
Till suns shall rise and set no more.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

All praise to God the Father be,
All praise, eternal Son, to thee;
Alleluia, alleluia!
Whom with the spirit we adore
Forever and forever more:
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

Words: Isaac Watts, 1719
Tune: LASST UNS ERFREUEN LM + Alleluias, Geistliche Kirchengesang (1623)
