Brian Doerksen - This Is My Father's World

Chorus / Description : The song This Is My Father's World celebrates the beauty and wonder of creation, acknowledging God as the creator and ruler of all things. The lyrics reflect the biblical truth that God's handiwork can be seen and heard in nature, and encourages us to find joy and rest in knowing that God is in control. The references to God as the maker of rocks, trees, skies, seas, and the declaration of His praise by birds and lilies are reminiscent of biblical passages such as Psalm

This Is My Father's World Lyrics

This is my Father's world
And to my listening ears
All nature sings and 'round me rings
The music of the spheres

This is my Father's world
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees of skies and seas
His hand the wonders wrought

This is my Father's world
The birds their carols raise
The morning light, the lily white
Declare their Maker's praise

This is my Father's world
He shines in all that's fair
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass
He speaks to me everywhere
This is my Father's world
He shines in all that's fair
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass
He speaks to me everywhere

This is my Father's world
O let me ne'er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong
God is the ruler yet

This is my Father's world
Why should my heart be sad
The Lord is King let the heavens ring
God reigns let earth be glad

This is my Father's world
He shines in all that's fair
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass
He speaks to me everywhere
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass

He speaks to me everywhere
