~ THE PRAISE OF CREATION ~

The mountains praise You in majesty,
And the rivers flow in harmony.
The valleys exalt Your holiness on high,
And the lilies of the fields lift their faces to the sky.



The oceans roar Your name with power,
The moon and the stars praise You in the midnight hour.
The lightning writes Your name on the earth,
And the applause of thunder acknowledges Your worth.



The sun shines Your glory bright,
And chase away the darkness to give us light.
The birds sings their songs of praise,
As all creation worships You with their voices raised.



I will praise You, Lord with your creation,
I will worship You in humble adoration.
As the trees of the forests clap their hands.
I will lift my voice with creations band.
