For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies.
Refrain:
Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of thankful praise.
For the wonder of each hour,
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale, and tree and flower,
Sun and moon, and stars of light.
Refrain
For Thyself best gift divine,
To your children Thou hast given.
For that great, great love of Thine,
All our sins Thou hast forgiven.
Refrain
For each perfect gift of Thine,
From our Savior freely giv’n;
For Thy Holy Word divine
Leading us from earth to Heav’n!
Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of grateful praise.
