for the beauty...


For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies;
For the love which from our birth,
Over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise.

For the wonder of each hour,
Of the day and of the night;
Hill and vale and tree and flow'r,
Sun and moon, and stars of light;
Lord of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise...

Can i just say that i really love this hymn. It is so simple and beautiful, and it makes me want to just praise God every single time i hear it. you may remember it from Meg's wedding scene in Little Women. all in all...it's definitely in my top 3 favorite hymns of all time. #2 is It is Well with My Soul, #3 goes to How Deep the Father's Love for Us.
What are the hymns that really touch you?
