For The Beauty Of The Earth Lyrics

Barlowgirl For The Beauty Of The Earth

For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory 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 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.

For Thy church that evermore
Lifteth holy hands above
Offering up on every shore
Perfect sacrifice of love

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