giving thanks

for the beauty of the earth

for the beauty of the skies

for the love which from our birth
over and around us lies

for the beauty of each hour

of the day and of the night

hill and vale, and tree and flower

sun and moon, and stars of light

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 thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise
