Lyrics For The Beauty Of The Earth - John Rutter , City of London Sinfonia , The Cambridge Singers
Gracious
God,
to
Thee
we
raise
This
our
sacrifice
of
praise
For
the
beauty
of
the
earth
For
the
beauty
of
the
skies
For
the
love
which
from
our
birth
Over
and
around
us
lies
Gracious
God,
to
Thee
we
raise
This
our
sacrifice
of
praise
For
the
beauty
of
each
hour
Of
the
day
and
of
the
night
Hill
and
vale,
and
tree
and
flower
Sun
and
moon
and
stars
of
light
Gracious
God,
to
Thee
we
raise
This
our
sacrifice
of
praise
For
the
joy
of
ear
and
eye
For
the
heart
and
mind's
delight
For
the
mystic
harmony
Linking
sense
to
sound
and
sight
Gracious
God,
to
Thee
we
raise
This
our
sacrifice
of
praise
For
the
joy
of
human
love
Brother,
sister,
parent,
child
Friends
on
earth
and
friends
above
For
all
gentle
thoughts
and
mild
Gracious
God,
to
Thee
we
raise
This
our
sacrifice
of
praise
For
each
perfect
gift
of
Thine
To
our
race
so
freely
given
Graces
human
and
divine
Flowers
of
earth
and
buds
of
heaven
Gracious
God,
to
Thee
we
raise
This
our
sacrifice
of
praise
