Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing:

My God and King!

The heav'ns are not too high,

His praise may thither fly;

The earth is not too low,

His praises there may grow.

Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing:

My God and King!

Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing:

My God and King!

The Church with psalms must shout;

No door can keep them out.

But, above all, the heart

Must bear the longest part.

Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing:

My God and King!

Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing:

My God and King!

The Father, with the Son,

And Spirit, Three in One,

One everlasting Lord,

Be evermore adored!

Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing:

My God and King!

Amen.
