From sandy cove

From sandy cove and surfer’s wave

to sun-kissed cliff and moor;

from farmer’s field to ramblers’ path

and seagull’s cry to children’s laugh

the whole creation sings

the whole creation sings

Creator God, your name is heard,

in every wind that blows;

in summer breeze and sailor’s gales

we hear of love that never fails

and all creation sings

and all creation sings

From great cathedrals’ soaring praise 

To voices cracked with age;

from chapel pulpit, market hall

our lives will echo one and all

that all creation sings

that all creation sings

To you, who spoke the Word of Life

and saw Creation grow;

to you who heard the new world ring

we offer all that we can bring

‘til all creation sings

‘til all creation sings
