1. For the beauty of the earth,
    For the glory of the skies,
    For the love which from our birth
    Over and around us lies—
    • Refrain:
      Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
      This our hymn of grateful praise.
  2. For the wonder of each hour,
    Of the day and of the night,
    Hill and vale, and tree and flow’r,
    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 Thy church that evermore
    Lifteth holy hands above,
    Off’ring up on every shore
    Her pure sacrifice of love—
