All Creatures Of Our God and King
This ancient Hymn was written by St. Francis of Assisi. He lived from 1181-1226.
The words were translated by William Draper.
 
All Creatures Of Our God and King
All creatures of our God and King,
Lift up your voices and with us sing
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Though burning sun with golden beam
Thou silver moon with softer gleam,

Refrain
O praise Him! O praise Him!
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!

Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heaven along,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice;
Ye lights of evening, find a voice.
(Refrain)

And all ye men of tender heart,
Forgiving others, take your part,
O sing ye! Alleluia!
Ye who long pain and sorrow bear,
Praise God and on Him cast your care,
(Refrain)

Let all things their Creator bless,
And worship Him in humble-ness,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son,
And praise the Spirit, Three in One,
(Refrain)
