Representative lyrics
English (Original Language)
I thank thee, dear Lord, for the blue of the sky, For the green of the woods and fields, For the river that ripples and sparkles by, For the harvest the brown earth yields, For the birds that sing and the flowers that bloom, And the breath of the cooling breeze. Thou hast made them all so beautiful, I thank thee, dear Lord, for these.
