Words: Francis of Assisi, circa 1225 (Cantico di fratre sole, Song of Brother Sun). He wrote this hymn shortly before his death, but it was not published for almost 400 years. Translated to English by William H. Draper for a children's Whitsuntide festival in Leeds, England; first appeared in the Public School Hymn Book, 1919. All creatures of our God and King Lift up your voice and with us sing Alleluia, Alleluia! Your burning sun with golden beam Your silver moon with softer gleam O praise Him, O praise Him! Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia! Your rushing wind and breezes soft Your clouds that sail in heaven along O praise Him, Alleluia! Your rising morn in praise rejoice Your lights of evening find a voice O praise Him, O praise Him! Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia! Praise God from whom all blessings flow Praise Him all creatures here below Praise Him above ye heavenly host Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost Let all things their Creator bless And worship God in humbleness O praise Him, Alleluia! O praise the Father, praise the Son! Praise the Spirit, Three in One! O praise Him, O praise Him! Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
