Psalm 11. Psalms 33:1-3, 150:6

            Let all creation bring you glory –

Let all creation give you praise –

Let all creation sing their hallelujah in their own ways:

            Let the minstrels take their lutes,

Their lyres, mandolins, and flutes,

And turn the music of their Lord

Into aural melodies and chords.

            Let the seamster take his clothes,

Fabrics and thread with which he sews,

And every stitch his needle makes

Be for your steadfast love and grace.

            Let the royals aim to rule

With righteousness revealed in you –

Their justice, like yours, ever be

Equal to their clemency.

            Let all creation bring you glory –

Let all creation give you praise –

Let all creation sing their hallelujah in their own ways:

            Let the fox inside the woodland’s

Life somehow reflect your goodness –

Nature showing nature of

Its maker in the world above.

            Let moon and his daytime brother

Shine for you and for no other;

Let strong winds and gentle breezes

Move or still as their master pleases.

            Let the darkest beings contrast

With light we’ve known from ages past.

Let every part, though great or small,

Point back to God behind it all.

            Let all creation bring you glory!

Let all creation give you praise!

Let all creation sing their hallelujah in their own ways!
