Hymnal: Kind Words #16 (1871) Lyrics: 1 Beautiful ground on which we tread,
Beautiful heaven above our head,
Beautiful flowers and beautiful trees,
Beautiful land and beautiful seas;
Beautiful sun that shines so bright,
Beautiful stars with glitt'ring light,
Beautiful summer, beautiful spring,
Beautiful birds that merrily sing.
2 Beautiful lambs that frisk and play,
Beautiful night and beautiful day,
Beautiful lily, beautiful rose,
Beautiful every flower that grows;
Beautiful drops of pearly dew,
Beautiful hills and vales to view,
Beautiful herbs that scent the air,
Beautiful things grow every where.
3 Beautiful ev'rything around,
Beautiful grass to deck the ground,
Beautiful fields and woods so green,
Beautiful buds and blossoms seen;
Beautiful flower and shady leaf,
Beautiful world, tho' full of grief,
Beautiful every tiny blade,
Beautiful all the Lord hath made. Languages: English Tune Title: BEAUTIFUL THOUGHTS
Beautiful ground on which we tread
