The Modern Hymnal ‎#64

64. All Things Bright and Beautiful

1 All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.

2 Each little flow’r that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
God made their glowing colors,
And made their tiny wings.

3 The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,—
God made them ev’ry one.

4 The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows where we play,
The rushes by the water
We gather ev’ry day;—

5 He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
