The doxology most commonly heard in Protestant churches is "Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow", sung to the traditional melody '''Old Hundredth''':
:''Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow,''
:''Praise Him, all creatures here below,''
:''Praise Him above, ye heavenly host,''
:''Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.''
