The Lower Lights for the beauty of the earth

Select language to translate this lyric

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.
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale, and tree and flow'r,
Sun and moon, and stars of light,
Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth, and friends above,
For all gentle thoughts and mild,
