16. For the Beauty of the Earth
“Unto Thee, O God, do we give thanks.”
Psalm 75:1
Text: Folliot S. Pierpont; Music:
Conrad Kocher
Key of G major
For the beauty of the earth
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
For the joy of human love
Brother, sister, parent, child
Friends on earth and Thee 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
Off’ring up on ev’ry shore
her pure sacrifice of love
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
this our hymn of grateful praise
