| Composer: | Conrad Kocher |
1 For the beauty of the earth,
For the beauty 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 wonder 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.
Amen.
