Lisle Ryder Poet Verse

Hymn: With Every Creature Sing

Let all of us with every creature sing, 
		praise to our God!
	Above us in the air
	may we all be aware
	of birds and bees in flight,
	whether by day or night.
Sing with one voice to celebrate the life 
		of creatures all!

Let all of us with every creature sing, 
		praise to our God!
	Across the tamed terrain
	farmed now for stock and grain;
	may woodland also thrive
	and wildlife too survive.
Sing with one voice lest any be extinct, 
		protect them all!

Let all of us with every creature sing, 
		praise to our God!
	Over the oceans wide
	with rise and fall of tide
	may all the plankton bloom
	for fishes to consume.
Sing with one voice to celebrate the life 
		of creatures all!

Let all of us with every creature sing, 
		praise to our God!
	There deep within the earth,
	in darkness comes new birth,
	beneath the tread of boots	
	among the worms and roots.
Sing with one voice lest any be extinct, 
		protect them all!

Let all of us with every creature sing, 
		praise to our God!
	May we now play our part,
	together taking heart;
	remembering all God gave,
	all creatures here to save.
Sing with one voice to celebrate the life 
		of creatures all!

Tune: Luckington
