All Creatures of Our God and King
"All Creatures of Our God and King" is an English Christian Easter hymn by William Henry Draper, based on a poem by St Francis of Assisi. It was first published in a hymn book in 1919.
== History ==
The words of the hymn were initially written by St Francis of Assisi in 1225 in the Canticle of the Sun poem, which was based on Psalm 148. The words were translated into English by William Draper, who at the time was rector of a Church of England parish church at Adel near Leeds. Draper paraphrased the words of the Canticle and set them to music. It is not known when Draper first composed the hymn but it was between 1899 and 1919. Draper composed the hymn for his church's children's Whitsun festival celebrations and it was later published in 1919 in the Public School Hymn Book.〔 The hymn is currently used in 179 different hymn books.〔 The words written by St Francis are some of the oldest used in hymns after "Father We Praise Thee", written in 580 AD.
The hymn is set to the tune of "''ドイツ語:Lasst uns erfreuen herzlich sehr''", a German Easter hymn written by Friedrich Spee, published in 1623 in his book ''ドイツ語:Auserlesene, Catholische, Geistliche Kirchengesäng''. It was first used in English hymn books in 1906.〔 John Rutter also wrote a piece of music for the hymn. Despite the hymn being initially written by Draper for Whitsun (the Anglican and English designation for Pentecost), it is mostly played as an Easter hymn, in the preceding weeks of the Easter season.
