Today’s hymn sung

1 For the beauty of the earth,

for the beauty of the skies,

for the love which from our birth

over and around us lies:

Lord of all, to thee we raise

this our sacrifice of praise.

2 For the beauty of each hour

of the day and of the night,

hill and vale, and tree and flower,

sun and moon and stars of light:

Chorus

3 For the joy of human love,

brother, sister, parent, child,

friends on earth, and friends above,

for all gentle thoughts and mild:

Chorus

4 For each perfect gift of thine

to our race so freely given,

graces human and divine,

flowers of earth and buds of heaven:

Chorus

Today’s hymn sung

1 Lord, thy word abideth,

and our footsteps guideth;

who its truth believeth

light and joy receiveth.

2 When our foes are near us,

then thy word doth cheer us,

word of consolation,

message of salvation.

3 When the storms are o'er us,

and dark clouds before us,

then its light directeth,

and our way protecteth.

4 Who can tell the pleasure,

who recount the treasure,

by thy word imparted

to the simple-hearted?

5 Word of mercy, giving

succour to the living;

word of life, supplying

comfort to the dying.

6 O that we discerning

its most holy learning,

Lord, may love and fear thee,

evermore be near thee.

Today’s hymn is:

All creatures of our God and King

sung by St Martin’s Voices

1 All creatures of our God and King

lift up your voice and with us sing

Alleluia, alleluia.

Thou burning sun with golden beam,

thou silver moon with softer gleam,

O praise him, O praise him,

alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

2 Thou rushing wind that art so strong,

ye clouds that sail in heaven along,

O praise him, alleluia.

Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice,

ye lights of evening, find a voice;

Chorus

3 Thou flowing water, pure and clear,

make music for thy Lord to hear,

Alleluia, alleluia.

Thou fire so masterful and bright,

that givest hearts both warmth and light:

Chorus

4 Dear mother earth, who day by day

unfoldest blessings on our way,

O praise him, alleluia.

The flowers and fruits that in thee grow,

let them his glory also show:

Chorus

5 Let all things their Creator bless,

and worship him in humbleness;

O praise him, alleluia.

Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son,

and praise the Spirit, Three in One;

Chorus
