From all that dwell below the skies
let the Creator’s praise arise:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Let the Redeemer’s name be sung,
through every land, by every tongue:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
2
Eternal are your mercies, Lord;
eternal truth attends your word:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Your praise shall sound from shore to shore,
till suns shall rise and set no more:
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Isaac Watts (1674–1748)
