[SOPRANO SOLO]
For the beauty of the earth
For the beauty of the skies
For the love which from our birth
over and around us all.
For the beauty of each hour
of the day and of the night
Hill and Vale and tree and flow'r
Sun and Moon and stars of light
[CHORUS]
Gracious God to thee we raise
Gracious God to thee we raise
Gracious God to thee we raise
this our sacrifice of praise
Gracious Lord to thee we raise
Gracious Lord to thee we raise
Gracious Lord to thee we raise
this our sacrifice of praise
this our sacrifice of praise
[TENOR SOLO]
For the joy of human Love
Brother, sister, parent child
friends on earth and friends above
for all gentle thought and mild
For each perfect gift of thine
to our race so freely giv'n
Graces human and divine
flow'r of earth and bud of heav'n
[CHORUS]
God to Thee we raise Gracious
God to Thee we raise this our
sacrifice of praise this our
sacrifice of praise this our
sacrifice of praise Gracious
God to thee we raise Gracious
God to thee we raise Gracious
God to thee we raise this our
sacrifice of praise Gracious
raise this our sacrifice of
praise this our sacrifice of
praise
