1 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.
2 For the joy of human love,
brother, sister, parent, child,
friends on earth, and friend above,
pleasures pure and undefiled,
Lord of all to Thee we raise
this, our hymn of grateful praise.
5 For the gift of Thy dear Son,
For the hope of heaven at last,
For the Spirit's victory won,
For the crown when life is past,
Lord of all, the Thee we raise
Song of gratitude and praise.
