The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook ‎#18a

18a. Each little flower that opens

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

2 Each little flower that opens,
each little bird that sings,
God made their glowing colours,
God made their tiny wings. [Refrain]

2 The purple-headed mountain,
the river running by,
the sunset, and the morning
that brightens up the sky, [Refrain]
