Lyrics
For the beauty of the earth, for the glory of the skies; for the love which from our birth over and around us lies; Christ, our God, to Thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise. For the wonder of each hour, of the day of the night; Christ, our God, to Thee we raise this our hymn of grateful praise. For the joy of the human love; brother, sister, parent, child; friends on earth and friends above, for all gentle thoughts and mild; Christ, our God, to Thee we raise, this our hymn of grateful praise. For Thy church that ever more lifteth holy hands above; of f'ring up on ev'ry shore her pure sacrifice of love. Amen.
