Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #636 (1961) Meter: 7.6.7.6 with refrain First Line: Each little flower that opens Lyrics: 1 Each little flow’r that opens,
Each little bird that sings;
God made their glowing colors,
And made their tiny wings.
Refrain:
Yes, all things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
And all things wise and wonderful
The Lord God made them all.
2 The purple headed mountains,
The river running by,
The sunset and the morning
That brighten up the sky. [Refrain]
3 The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden -
God made them ev’ry one. [Refrain]
4 The tall tress in the green-wood,
The meadows where we play,
The flowers by the water,
We gather ev'ry day. [Refrain]
5 God gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who doeth all things well. [Refrain]
Amen.
