Return to Eight-Bell Hymns (General)

Earth and All Stars (EARTH AND ALL STARS) – Eight handbells

David N. Johnson wrote Earth and All Stars in 1968. Despite the short span of time since then, this hymn has become a favorite to some with its ability to fit into the most grandiose and awe-inspiring of worship. It’s our pleasure to make the eight-bell version of this hymn available!

Earth and all stars, loud rushing planets, sing to the Lord a new song!
O victory, loud shouting army, sing to the Lord a new song!
Refrain He has done marvelous things. I too will praise him with a new song!
