Let All Things Now Living
words by Katherine K. Davis, traditional Welsh melody

Original key: F - Guitars capo @ 1st fret

Verse 1:

    E              C#m      F#m           B
Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving

   E          A       B         E
To God the Creator triumphantly raise,

                  C#m         F#m        B
Who fashioned and made us, protected and stayed us,

    E          A         B          E
Who guideth us on to the end of our days.

                             A            B
His banners are o'er us, His light goes before us,

  E         C#m          F#           B
A pillar of fire shining forth in the night,

     E            C#m          F#m         B
'Til shadows have vanished and darkness is banished,

   E          A           B          E
As forward we travel from light into light.


Verse 2:

His law He enforces: the stars in their courses,
The sun in His orbit, obediently shine;
The hills and the mountains, the rivers and fountains,
The deeps of the ocean proclaim Him divine.
We too, should be voicing our love and rejoicing,
With glad adoration a song let us raise,
'Til all things now living unite in thanksgiving
To God in the highest, hosanna and praise!
