All Creatures Lament
All creatures of our God and King
Lift up your voices, let them ring
Fill the earth with lamentation
Cry out abuses of our pow'r
Tell what we lose with every hour
To our greed and depredation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
All creatures winging in the air
Cry out the failures of our care
Fill the sky with lamentation
Shout through the clouds of smoke and ash
Choked with the fumes of poison gas
Tell us of our degradation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
All creatures hidden in the seas
Lift up your anguished prayers and pleas
Fill the sea with lamentation
Teach us to see your wonders now
Help us to make a holy vow
Here to halt your devastation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
All creatures dwelling on the land
Join as we lift each heart and hand
Fill the world with lamentation
Mourn the destruction of our home
Weep with the fear of worse to come
Hear the groans of all creation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
Lift up your voices, let them ring
Fill the earth with lamentation
Cry out abuses of our pow'r
Tell what we lose with every hour
To our greed and depredation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
All creatures winging in the air
Cry out the failures of our care
Fill the sky with lamentation
Shout through the clouds of smoke and ash
Choked with the fumes of poison gas
Tell us of our degradation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
All creatures hidden in the seas
Lift up your anguished prayers and pleas
Fill the sea with lamentation
Teach us to see your wonders now
Help us to make a holy vow
Here to halt your devastation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
All creatures dwelling on the land
Join as we lift each heart and hand
Fill the world with lamentation
Mourn the destruction of our home
Weep with the fear of worse to come
Hear the groans of all creation
Lord, have mercy, Christ, have mercy
Lord, have mercy
