55. Praise to God

1 A shining world of flow’rs below
A world of flow’rs above,
And all proclaim in union sweet
Our Father’s pow’r and love.
The mighty waters of the main
Are singing of His might,
And all things tell of Him who reigns
From starry thrones of light.

Chorus:
O shining world of flow’rs below,
O world of stars above,
Ye all proclaim in union sweet,
Our Father’s pow’r and love.

2 At His command the hills array
In million grassy blades,
And sunbeams haste in legions gay
To garden, field, and glade.
Bright fountains leap and flash and sing,
The rivers seaward run,
The morning sky and sunset light,
Proclaim the mighty One! [Chorus]

3 O join the voice of love and praise,
let songs ascend above,
To God our King who crown’s our days
With token’s of His love.
The mighty waters of the main
Are singing of His might,
And all things tell of Him who reigns
From starry thrones of light. [Chorus]
