All Things Bright and Beautiful
"God saw every thing that He had made, and behold, it was very good " Genesis 1:31
All things' bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small,
and all things wise and wonderful; The Lord God made them all.
Each little flower that open up, each little bird that sings,
he made their glowing colors and he made their tiny wings.
The purple headed mountain, the river running by,
the sunset and the morning light that brightens up the sky.
The cold wind in the winter time, the pleasant summer sun,
the ripe fruit in the garden now, he made them everyone;
He gave us eyes to see them all, and lips that we might tell,
how great is the Almighty God, who has made all things well.
