Refrain: All good gifts around us are sent from heaven above; We thank you, Lord, we thank you, Lord for all your love. 2 You only are the Maker of all things near and far; you paint the wayside flower, you light the evening star; the winds and waves obey you; by you the birds are fed; much more to us, your children, you give our daily bread. [Refrain] 3 We thank you, our provider, for all things bright and good, the seed-time, and the harvest, our life, our health, our food. No gifts have we to offer for all your love imparts, but that which you most welcome: our humble, thankful hearts. [Refrain] --- FRENCH - 1 Les astres dans leur course, l’orage et les éclairs, le gai babil des sources, le vol de l’aigle fier', le tendre amour d'un père, un beau regard d’enfant, le sang dans nos artères: tout vient du Dieu vivant. Refrain: Bénis ton Dieu sans cesse, ô peuple des chrétiens, fais tiennes ses promesses, jouis de tous ses biens. 2 La perle de rosée, les grappes de raisin, le chant de l’épousée, l’arôme du bon pain et le joyeux cortège des mois et des saisons, les fins cristaux de neige, à Dieu nous les devons. [Refrain] 3 Bénis, bénis, mon âme, le Dieu de Jésus-Christ, et ses bienfaits proclame, bienfaits d’un si grand prix. Il sème en abondance, le long de tes sentiers, les dons qu’en sa clémence il veut multiplier.
