For the Beauty of the Earth!

Each of week I am going to post a song that stood out to me. Today it is "For the Beauty of the Earth" I think this is a great song coming into the Thanksgiving Season.

For the Beauty of the Earth

For the beauty of the earth
For the beauty of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies.

Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of grateful 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 stars of light.

Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of grateful praise.

For the joy of human love,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth and friends above,
For all gentle thoughts and mild.
