FOR THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH

For the beauty of the earth
For the glory of the skies
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of human love
Brother, sister, parent, child
Friends on earth and friends above
For all gentle thoughts and mild
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise
























For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night
Hill and vale, and tree and flower
Sun and moon, and stars of light
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of ear and eye
or the heart and mind's delight
For the mystic harmony
Linking sense to sound and sight
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise



For Thy church, that evermore
Lifteth holy hands above
Offering up on every shore
Her pure sacrifice of love
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For Thyself, best Gift Divine
To the world so freely given
For that great, great love of Thine
Peae on earth and joy in heaven
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise
