If I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky...
-Isaac Watts
For the beauty of the earth...
Hill and vale, and tree and flower,...
Lord of all, to Thee we raise,
This our hymn of grateful praise.
-Folliot S. Pierpoint
The morning light, the lily white, declare their Maker’s praise.

Robed in the blooming garb of spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
-German Jesuits
Something lives in every hue Christless eyes have never seen;
Birds with gladder songs o’erflow, flowers with deeper beauties shine,
Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine.
Birds with gladder songs o’erflow, flowers with deeper beauties shine,
Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine.
Since I know, as now I know, I am His, and He is mine.
