I love to see the glowing sun

I love to see the glowing sun

Tune: [I love to see the glowing sun]
Published in 13 hymnals

Representative Text

1 I love to see the glowing sun,
Light up the deep blue sky,
Along the pleasant fields to run,
And hear the brook flow by.

2 How fresh and green the trees appear;
What blooming flowers I find!
Oh, surely God has sent them here
To tell us he is kind.

3 The beast that on the herbage feed
Thank him in different ways;
And little birds upon the boughs
Sing sweetly to his praise.

4 Shall I alone forget to thank
The God who made us all?
O no, I'll humbly kneel to him,
And on my Maker call.

5 Though I am but a little child,
Yet I to God belong;
His works declare him good and mild,
And he will hear my song.
