Canticle of the Sun - Lyrics

The heavens are telling the glory of God
And all creation is shouting for joy
Come dance in the forest come play in the field
And sing sing to the glory of the Lord


Praise for the sun the bringer of day
He carries the light of the Lord in his rays
The moon and the stars who light up the way unto your throne
The heavens are telling the glory of God


And all creation is shouting for joy
Come dance in the forest come play in the field
And sing sing to the glory of the Lord
Praise for the wind that blows through the trees


The seas' mighty storms the gentlest breeze
They blow where they will
They blow where they please to please the Lord
The heavens are telling the glory of God


And all creation is shouting for joy
Come dance in the forest come play in the field
And sing sing to the glory of the Lord
Praise for the rain that waters our fields


And blesses our crops so all the earth yields
From death unto life her mystery revealed
Springs forth in joy
The heavens are telling the glory of God


And all creation is shouting for joy
Come dance in the forest come play in the field
And sing sing to the glory of the Lord
Praise for the earth


Who makes life grow
The creatures you made to let your life show
The flowers and trees that help us to know
The heart of love


The heavens are telling the glory of God
And all creation is shouting for joy
Come dance in the forest come play in the field
And sing sing to the glory of the Lord
Sing sing to the glory of the Lord
