This another hymn that I wanted to record in my lifetime. Now I did it. Yay! I also wanted to use more of my legit 'classical' voice which some will appreciate and perhaps some not. That's OK, its all a part of who I am, and I can't please everyone. I love classical music and can worship as easily listening to Bach as I can to Hillsong. I hope that this arrangement is as much fun to listen to as it was to sing. I imagined myself in an old cathedral as I was recording the vocals....singing so my dad would hear me from heaven!

for Mom. Yes, I am returning to my classical roots….with drums this time!

Lyrics

All Creatures Of Our God And King


All creatures of our God and King,
Lift up your voice and with us sing,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou burning sun with golden beam
Thou silver moon with softer gleam!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Allelu-u-ia!

VERSE 2:
Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heav'n along,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice,
Ye lights of evening, find a voice!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

VERSE 4:
Let all things their Creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son,
And praise the Spirit, Three in One!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
