O all ye works of God the Lord,

O ye the radiant Sun, and Moon, Bless.
O ye the glistering Stars of Heaven, Bless.
O ye the Rains, and Pearly Dews, Bless.
Ye stormy Winds, and whispering Gales, Bless.
O ye the Fire, and fervent Heat, Bless.
Ye Winter, and the Summer fair, Bless.
O ye the Frost, and chilling Cold, Bless.
O ye congealed Ice and Snow, Bless.
Ye Sable Nights, and Sun-bright Days, Bless.
The Darkness, and Light cheering Rays, Bless.

And all that in the Waters glide, Bless.
O all ye Fowles that Wing the Air, Bless.
Ye Wilder Beasts, and Gentler Folds, Bless.
O ye the Children of Mankind, Bless.
