All His Wondrous Works

1 The robin's carol, gay and sweet,
Rings down the forest aisle,
While ferns and flow'rs look up to greet
The sunbeam's golden smile;
And bird, and flow'r, and balmy breeze
Thro' all the verdant wood,
And gentle rustling of the leaves
Remind us, God is good.

Chorus:
All his wondrous works proclaim,
Great and holy is his name,
Earth, and sea, and heaven above,
Praise the Lord, the God of love.

2 The waves that break in snowy lace
With ev'ry rising tide,
The vines that with their grace
The mountain's rugged side;
The tender grass-blades at our feet,
The arching sky above,
The blessed, happy tale repeat,
They tell us God is love. [Chorus]

3 But there is music, sweeter far
Than nature's voices make,
Nor bird, nor wave, nor circling star
In this grand song partake;
But christian children gladly raise
Their hearts to him above,
In joyful hymns of grateful praise,
They sing redeeming love. [Chorus]
