LyicsHOW beauteous is the earth!
How bright the sky!
How wisely planned by Him
Who reigns on high!
His love is rich and free-
A boundless store!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Forever more!
By day he makes the sun
To pour forth light:
The moon and starry host
To shine by night;
His love, &c.
He waters hill and dale
With dews and showers;
And crowns their varied soils
With fruits and flowers:
His love, &c.
He sent his only Son
To save the world,
When, from its Eden bowers,
Fallen man was furled:
His love, &c.
His face hath smiled on us,
Above all lands;
Our thousands splendid gifts
Are from his hands;
His love, &c.
