Roar the waves, the water praising God who saves; and from beneath creatures rise in shapes amazing to our eyes - he gives them breath: God who set the plants blazing hold us yet in life or death. Cries a bird at break of morning - music heard when life began; Christ was there at day's first dawning, Son to share a Father's plan: Jesus, born our hope and warning, shall return - the Son of Man. Sing the trees, the branches calling in the breeze; the Spirit's song sweeps the grass, the flowers falling, Look! he passes all along; wing of God whose strength appalling mock the proud and bends the strong. Sound the praise of God the Father, voices raise to Christ the Son; in the Spirit Christians gather - speak his merit everyone: not in vain words glory - rather tell again what God has done!
