The Church has worshipped the Creator with this hymn for centuries. Here’s our arrangement for sixteen handbells, suitable for four to eight ringers. We’ve also made it available in two versions: C5-A6 (three octaves) and G4-E6 (two octaves).
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 sing ye, O sing ye, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Thou rushing wind that art so strong, ye clouds that sail in heav’n along,
alleluia, alleluia!
Thou rising morn in praise rejoice, ye lights of evening, find a voice,
O sing ye, O sing ye, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Thou flowing water, pure and clear, make music for thy God to hear,
alleluia, alleluia!
Thou fire so masterful and bright, that givest all both warmth and light,
O sing ye, O sing ye, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Let all things their Creator bless, and worship God in humbleness,
alleluia, alleluia!
Oh, praise the Father, praise the Son, and praise the Spirit, Three in One!
O sing ye, O sing ye, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Purchasing this 16-bell arrangement gives you permission to print and maintain up to eight copies for your handbell group – so you only need to pay once. Purchase also gives permission for performance, broadcasting, live-streaming and video-sharing online. See our licensing agreement for full details, and please remember to mention the title and arranger of the piece on video-sharing sites, social media and any printed materials such as concert programs.
