829. From All That Dwell below the Skies (Praise God, from Whom All Blessings Flow)

1 From all that dwell below the skies
Let the Creator's praise arise;
Let the Redeemer's name be sung
Through ev'ry land, by ev'ry tongue.

2 Eternal are your mercies, Lord,
Eternal truth attends your word;
Your praise shall sound from shore to shore,
Till suns shall rise and set no more.

Dox:
Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Sing praise, all creatures here below;
Joined with the praise of heav'nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
