Author: Folliott S. Pierpont Hymnal: The Hymnal for Boys and Girls #1 (1936) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 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.
2 For the wonder 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.
Amen.
