1. From all that dwell below the skies,
Let the Creators praise arise;
Let the Redeemers name be sung
Thro evry land by evry tongue

Eternal are thy mercies, Lord
Eternal truth confirms thy word.
Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore,
Till suns and moons shall set no more.

2. Your lofty themes, ye mor-tals, bring,
In songs of praise divinely sing;
The great salvation loud proclaim,
And shout for joy the Saviours name.

In evry land begin the song;
To evry land the strains belong;
In cheerful sounds all voices raise,
And fill the world with loudest praise.
Hallelujah.
