George Herbert's Antiphon read by Richard Wallace

Antiphon

George Herbert

Chorus: Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing
'My God and King.'

Verse: The heav'ns are not too high, 
His praise may thither fly: 
The earth is not too low, 
His praises there may grow.

Chorus: Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing, 
'My God and King.'

Verse: The church with psalms must shout
No door can keep them out: 
But above all, the heart
Must bear the longest part.

Chorus: Let all the world in ev'ry corner sing, 
'My God and King.'
