Hymn
From All That Dwell Below the Skies
From all that dwell below the skies,
Let the Creator's praise arise;
Jehovah's glorious Name be sung
Thro' ev'ry land, by ev'ry tongue.
Eternal are Thy mercies, Lord,
And truth eternal is Thy word:
Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore
Till suns shall rise and set no more.
Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!
Praise Him, all creatures here below!
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host!
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!
