Praise be to God for shady trees

For sun and sand and pounding seas

For lakes that lie so calm and still

And clouds that gather on a hill

Praise be to God for yellow flowers

And clocks that chime the passing hours

For food that’s on the table laid

For all good things that hands have made

Praise be to God for every day

For loving guidance on the way

And faithful hearts that never falter

For bread and wine upon the altar

Give praise to God each living thing

Praise Him to whom the angels sing.
