1 Bless the Lord in psalm and chorus, children, parents, old and young; as they joined in praise before us, let new praises now be sung. Praise and sing with holy wonder God unseen but not unknown; bless the Silence, bless the Thunder, fragile Love upon the throne! 2 Bless the One for every creature, deepest fin or loftiest wing; highest, lowest, praise God's nature, servants' slave yet highest King. Praise the Darkness and the Mystery, dreams and marvels yet concealed; then by place and name and history bless the Word of truth revealed. 3 Bless the Star of Israel's story, cloud by day and flame at night; praise the Fire whose mighty glory fills the shrine with smoke and light. Praise the Father, Son and Spirit: freed to worship, love, adore, earth and heaven, learn God's merit, bless your God for evermore! 4 Bless our Guide and Friend and Lover; praise our Water, Rock, and Sun; Praise with joy and bless for ever God our Saviour, everyone! Praise our Evening and our Morning, bless the Coming one, who came; bless our Hope whose day is dawning, praise one holy, living Name! 5 Blessings full and praise eternal sing for wood and nails and blood; Everlasting, Universal, praise and bless the Lord our God. Blessings, crowning all our praises, highest, deepest, furthest, free, bless the Christ, all praise to Jesus: praises, blessings, glory be!
