All things Bright and Beautiful:

 

LOVE divine

All creatures of our God and King

All things Bright and Beautiful:

All things bright and beautiful,

all creatures great and small,

all things wise and wonderful,

the Lord God made them all.

 

Each little flower that opens,

each little bird that sings,

He made their glowing colours,

He made their tiny wings.

All things bright and beautiful,

all creatures great and small,

all things wise and wonderful,

the Lord God made them all.

LOVE divine, all loves excelling,

Joy of heaven, to earth come down,

Fix in us thy humble dwelling,

All thy faithful mercies crown.

 

Jesus, thou art all compassion,

Pure unbounded love thou art;

Visit us with thy salvation,

Enter every trembling heart.

 

Come, almighty to deliver,

Let us all thy grace receive;

Suddenly return, and never,

Never more thy temples leave.

 

Thee we would be always blessing,

Serve thee as thy hosts above;

Pray, and praise thee, without ceasing,

Glory in thy perfect love.

 

Finish then thy new creation:

Pure and spotless let us be;

Let us see thy great salvation,

Perfectly restored in thee

 

Changed from glory into glory,

Till in heaven we take our place,

Till we cast our crowns before thee,

Lost in wonder, love, and praise.

 

Note, with some tunes we join the pairs of verses together to give 3 big verses – ask the organist!

 

All creatures of our God and King,

lift up your voice and with us sing:

Hallelujah, hallelujah!

Thou burning sun with golden beam,

thou silver moon with softer gleam,

O praise Him, O praise Him,

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!

 

Thou rushing wind that art so strong,

ye clouds that sail in heaven along,

O praise Him, hallelujah!

Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice,

ye lights of evening, find a voice;

O praise Him, O praise Him,

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!

 

Let all things their creator bless,

and worship Him in humbleness,

O praise Him, hallelujah!

Praise, praise the Father,

praise the Son,

and praise the Spirit, Three-in-One:

O praise Him, O praise Him,

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah!

 

Immortal Invisible God Only Wise (modern)

 

Immortal invisible God only wise

In light inaccessible hid from our eyes;

Most holy, most glorious, the ancient of days,

Almighty, victorious, your great name we praise.

 

Unresting, unhasting and silent as light,

Nor wanting nor wasting, you rule us in might;

Your justice like mountains high soaring above,

Your clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.

 

To all life you give, Lord, to both great and small,

In all life you live, Lord, the true life of all:

We blossom and flourish, uncertain and frail;

We wither and perish, but you never fail.

 

We worship before you, great Father of light,

While angels adore you, all veiling their sight;

Our praises we render, O Father to you

whom only the splendour light hides from view.

 

Immortal Invisible God Only Wise (trad)

 

Immortal invisible God only wise

In light inaccessible hid from our eyes;

Most blessed, most glorious, the ancient of days,

Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise.

 

Unresting, unhasting and silent as light,

Nor wanting nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;

Thy justice like mountains high soaring above,

Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.

 

To all life Thou givest, to both great and small,

In all life Thou livest, the true life of all:

We blossom and flourish, as leaves on the tree;

And wither and perish, but naught changeth Thee.

 

Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,

Thy angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;

All laud we would render, O help us to see,

‘Tis only the splendour of light hideth Thee.
