St. Francis of Assisi (1225) / New Arrangement By Steve Snider
lyrics
1. 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,
Alleluia!
2. Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heav'n along
Oh 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!
3. Thou flowing water, pure and clear,
Make Music for thy Lord to hear,
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Thou fire so masterful and bright,
That givest man both warmth and light,
O praise Him, O praise Him,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia!
4. And all ye men of tender heart,
Forgiving others, take your part,
Oh sing ye, Alleluia!
Ye who long pain and sorrow bear,
Praise God and on Him cast your care,
O praise Him, O praise Him,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia!
5. Let all things their Creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness,
Oh 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!
I began to play guitar in my early teens. Having grown up in the Midwest USA, I was exposed early to bluegrass music and
found that I was drawn to it (I do however enjoy most all music).
By my late teen's and early twenty's, I joined a bluegrass band and begin playing at small local venues. For most of my adult life, I have played either guitar, mandolin or banjo in church services....more
