Praise the Lord of heaven,
praise Him in the height;
Praise Him, all ye angels,
praise Him, stars of light;
Praise Him, skies, and waters
which above the skies,
When His Word commanded,
stablished did arise.
Praise the Lord, ye fountains of
the deeps and seas,
Rocks and hills and mountains,
cedars and all trees;
Praise Him, clouds and vapors,
snow and hail and fire,
Stormy wind fulfilling
only His desire.
Praise Him, fowls and cattle,
princes and all kings;
Praise Him, men and maidens,
all created things;
For the Name of God
is excellent alone;
On the earth His footstool,
over Heav’n His throne.
