For the beauty of the earth, for the beauty of the skies
From the love which from our birth over and around us lies
Lord of all to thee we raise this our sacrifice of praise
For the beauty of each hour of the day and of the night
Hill and vale and tree and flower, sun and moon and flowers of light
Lord of all to thee we raise this our sacrifice of praise
For the joy of human love, brother, sister, parent, child
Friends above and friends on earth, for each perfect gift of thine
Lord of all to thee we raise this our sacrifice of praise
