CPWI Hymnal ‎#707

707. The bright and sunny weather

Refrain:
All things bright and beautiful,
all creatures big and small,
all things wise and wonderful,
the Lord God made them all.

1 The bright and sunny weather,
our sparkling waters pure
are gifts from God as well as
the white sand on our shore. [Refrain]

2 The mangoes in the summer,
the sea grapes growing wild,
guinep and plums and guavas
as gifts for every child.

3 The waters round our islands
are brimming full with food;
grouper and crab and lobster
that do our bodies good. [Refrain]
