For the beauty of the earth, 
For the glory of the skies, 
For the love which from our birth 
Over and around us lies.

For the wonder of each hour, 
Of the day and of the night, 
Hill and vale, and tree and flower, 
Sun and moon, and stars of light. 
Lord of all to Thee we raise 
This our hymn of grateful praise.

– Folliot Sandford Pierpoint (1835-1917)
