Lyrics:
1. For the beauty of the earth,
For the beauty of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies,
[Chorus]
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
2. For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale, and tree and flowr,
Sun and moon, and stars of light,
3. For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth, and friends above,
For all gentle thoughts and mild,
4. For the ones who came before,
Those who paved now well worn ways,
Watching from a distant shore,
Whom well greet at end of days.
