| This is my Father's world, And
to my list'ning ears.
All nature sings, and round me
rings The music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world, I
rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees,
of skies and seas; His hand the
wonders wrought.
This is my Father's world, The
birds the carols raise;
The morning light, the lily
white Declare their Maker's praise.
This is my Father's world, He
shines in all that's fair; In
the rustling grass I hear Him
pass, He speaks to me ev'rywhere.
This is my Father's world, O
let me ne'er forget That
though the wrong seems oft so
strong, God is the Ruler yet.
This is my Father's world, The
battle is not done, Jesus
who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and heav'n be one.
