All Things Bright
and Beautiful

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.
Each little
flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their tiny wings.
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their tiny wings.
The purple-headed
mountain,
The river running by,
The sunset, and the morning,
That brightens up the sky;
The river running by,
The sunset, and the morning,
That brightens up the sky;
The cold wind in
the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.
He gave us eyes
to see them,
And lips that we might tell,
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
And lips that we might tell,
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
