Lyrics For the Beauty of the Earth - John Rutter , The Cambridge Singers , City of London Sinfonia



For the beauty of the earth,
For the beauty of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies
Over and around us lies:
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise
For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale A/T: and tree and flower
S/A: Sun and moon and stars of light:
T/B: Sun and moon and stars of light:
All: Lord of all, to thee we raise
This S/T: our joyful hymn
A/B: our hymn
All: Of praise
T/B: For the joy of human love
S/A: For the joy of love
All: Brother, sister, parent, child,
Friends on earth
And friends above
For all gentle thoughts and mild,
For all gentle thoughts and mild:
Lord of all, to thee we raise
T/B: This our joyful hymn
S/A: Our joyful hymn
All: of praise
For each perfect gift of thine
Unto us so freely given,
Graces human and divine,
Flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n,
Flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n:
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise,
This our joyful hymn of praise.
