For the beauty of the earth;
For the beauty of the skies
For the love that from our birth
over and around us lies
Lord of all to Thee we raise
This our hymn of praise
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 praise,
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 praise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
