A Song of Nature

Representative Text

1 Nature is singing a beautiful song,
Voices unknown the notes prolong,
Singing the praise of a wonderful Hand
Ruling o’er every land.

Ref:
Myriad voices all seem to say
Praise Him today, praise Him today,
Forest and meadow and garden gay
Join in His Praise today.

2 Nature extols the Creator above
Tells of His wisdom, might and love,
Shows us the seasons that pass in their turn,
Bids us God’s pow’r to learn. [Refrain]

3 Nature is teaching us wonderful things,
Leaf that unfolds and bird that sings,
Everything tells of His life giving plan
Made for the good of man. [Refrain]
