For the Beauty of the Earth
Author: Folliot S. Pierpont, 1835-1917 Hymnal: Worship (3rd ed.) #557 (1986) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Hymnal Title: Worship (3rd ed.) Lyrics: 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:
Lord of all, to you 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 flow'r,
Sun and moon, and stars of light:
Lord of all, to you we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
3 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.
4 For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth, and friends above;
For all gentle thoughts and mild:
Lord of all, to you we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
5 For your church, that evermore
Lifts its holy hands above;
Off'ring up on every shore
Its pure sacrifice of love:
Lord of all, to you we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
6 For yourself, best Gift Divine!
To this world so freely giv'n;
Word Incarnate, God's design,
Peace on earth and joy in heav'n:
Lord of all, to you we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
