All things cry out to you, O Lord
Those which speak give their word
And too those things which cannot speak
Worship you lowly, meek
All things honour you, those which think
And those which eat and drink
And too those things, some which cannot
Think, they praise you, their lot
For there is one longing and one
Groaning, excluding none
That all things have for you, who made
Each one, and them arrayed
All things pray to you that your plan
Do comprehend for man
And offer you silence or song
They join the heavenly throng
In you, the One, all things abide
In you does life reside
And all things do endlessly run
To you, Creator One
You the beginning and the end
You your Creation tend
Appoint for all, a set life-span
May we seek you, we can
