For the beauty of the earth

For the beauty of the skies

For the love which from our birth

Over and around us lies

Over and around us lies

Lord of all to thee we raise

This our joyful hymn of 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

Sun and moon and stars of light

Lord of all to thee we raise

This our joyful hymn of praise

For the joy of human love

Brother sister parent child

Friends on earth and friends above

For all gentle thoughts and mild

For all gentle thoughts and mild

For thyself best Gift Divine

To the world so freely given

For that great great love of thine

Peace on earth and joy in heaven

Peace on earth and joy in heaven

Lord of all to thee we raise
