30. Above the Clear Blue Sky

1 Above the clear blue sky,
In Heaven’s bright abode,
The angel host on high
Sing praises to their God;
Alleluia! Alleluia!
They love to sing to God their King,
Alleluia!

2 O blessed Lord, Thy truth
To all Thy flock impart,
And teach us in our youth
To know Thee as Thou art.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Then shall we sing to God our King,
Alleluia!

3 O may Thy holy Word
Spread all the world around
And all with one accord
Uplift the joyful sound.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
All then shall sing to God their King,
Alleluia!
