From all that dwell below the skies by Louis Bourgeois — Lyrics
About From all that dwell below the skies
This stirring anthem offers a jubilant call to praise, beginning with the familiar words of Psalm 117. The SATB arrangement of Louis Bourgeois's setting is ideal for general use throughout the church year, particularly at Eastertide or times of thanksgiving. The music builds with energy and conviction, reflecting the grand scope of the text. The composer's skill is evident in the flowing melodic lines and solid harmonic progressions that make this hymn both accessible and profoundly moving for choir and congregation alike. Its straightforward yet powerful delivery makes it a natural choice for drawing people together in unified song.
