We sang this at church a couple of weeks ago and it’s a nice melodic song. I’ve sung it often as a quiet song, but on the odd occasion, depending on the music leader or the musicians it’s quite boisterous. Most of the time though, it’s a quiet thoughtful song.

Lyrics
Lord of all creation
Of the water, earth and sky
The Heavens are Your Tabernacle
Glory to the Lord on high
Of the water, earth and sky
The Heavens are Your Tabernacle
Glory to the Lord on high
God of wonders, beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Early in the morning
I will celebrate the light
And when I stumble into darkness
I will call Your name by night
I will celebrate the light
And when I stumble into darkness
I will call Your name by night
God of wonders, beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of Heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of Heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of Heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of Heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the Lord of Heaven and earth
Holy, holy
Holy, holy
Holy, holy
God of wonders, beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
God of wonders, beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
