For the Beauty of the Earth by The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square Lyrics

For the beauty of the earth
For the glory 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 and tree and flow'r
Sun and moon, and stars of light
Sun and moon, and stars of light;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our joyful hymn of praise

For the joy of human love
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
This, our joyful hymn 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
Flowers of earth and buds of heaven
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our joyful hymn of praise
