Tune: | ST. DARERCA |
Composer: | Robert Alexander Stewart Macalister |
1 Let all the world in every corner sing,
"My God and King!"
The heavens 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 every corner sing,
"My God and King!"
2 Let all the world in every 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 every corner sing,
"My God and King!"
Amen.
