For the beauty of the earth


    • For the beauty of the earth, 
    • For the beauty of the skies, 
    • For the love which from our birth 
    • Over and around us lies: 
    • Father, unto Thee we raise 
    • This our sacrifice of praise. 

    • For the beauty of each hour 
    • Of the day and of the night, 
    • Hill and vale, and tree and flower, 
    • Sun and moon, and stars of light: 
    • Father, unto Thee we raise 
    • This our sacrifice of praise. 

    • For the joy of human love, 
    • Brother, sister, parent, child, 
    • Friends on earth, and friends above; 
    • For all gentle thoughts and mild: 
    • Father, unto Thee we raise 
    • This our sacrifice of praise. 

    • For each perfect gift of Thine 
    • To our race so freely given, 
    • Graces, human and divine, 
    • Flowers of earth, and buds of heaven: 
    • Father, unto Thee we raise 
    • This our sacrifice of praise
