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 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, for 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 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 each perfect gift of Thine to our race so freely giv'n
Graces human and divine, flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n
Lord of all, to Thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise
