This is my Father's world,
and to my listening ears
all nature sings, and round
me rings
the music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world:
I rest me in the thought
of rocks and trees, of
skies and seas;
his hand the wonders
wrought.
2
This is my Father's world,
the birds their carols
raise,
the morning light, the lily
white,
declare their maker's
praise.
This is my Father's world:
he shines in all that's
fair;
in the rustling grass I
hear him pass;
he speaks to me everywhere.
3
This is my Father's world.
O let me ne'er forget
that though the wrong seems
oft so strong,
God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father's world:
why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King; let the
heavens ring!
God reigns; let the earth
be glad!
