For the beauty of the earth
For the glory of the skies
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies
Lord of all, to You we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of ear and eye
For the heart and mind's delight
For the mystic harmony
Linking sense to sound and sight
Lord of all, to You we raise
This our hymn of grateful (praise)

Praise, creation rings with praise
You're beautiful, the world resounds amazed

For the joy of human love
Brother, sister, parent, child
Friends on earth and friends above
Pleasures pure and undefiled
Lord of all, to You we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For each perfect gift divine
To our world so freely giv'n
Joys bestowed by love's design
Seeds of earth and fruits of heav'n:
Lord of all, to You we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise
Creating God to You we raise
This our hymn of grateful (praise)

Praise, creation rings with praise
You're beautiful the world resounds amazed
Praise, creation rings with praise
In rhyme and grace, the song goes on always

For the beauty of the earth
