The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration ‎#578

578. All Things Bright and Beautiful

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

1 Each little flow'r that opens up,
Each little bird that sings,
God 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. [Refrain]

2 The cold wind in the winter-time,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden now,
He made them ev'ryone;
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. [Refrain]
