‘Praise to the Lord, the Almighty’

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, sung here by the Altar of Praise Men’s Chorale–how well i remember this from Sunday school!

I haven’t had many hymn requests lately, but what can I saw? The hymn shop is open 24/7.

  2. I love this hymn so much, I placed it in my song book.

    I have one request, “All Creatures of Our God and King.”

    I love the words to many of the old hymns. The words of “All Creatures” was initially written by St. Francis of Assisi in 1225 in the Canticle of the Sun poem, which was based on Psalm 148. The words were translated into English by William Draper, rector of a Church of England parish church at Adel near Leeds. Draper paraphrased the words of the Canticle and set them to music. It was published in 1919 in the Public School Hymn Book. As of 2025, it is known to be used in 270 different hymn books.
