The Creation
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures, great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.
Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colors,
He made their tiny wings.
The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows where we play,
The rushes by the water
We gather every day--
He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well!
--Cecil Frances Alexander
Thank You For Summer
Thank you, God, for summer
With all its flowers gay,
And birds that sing, and green grass,
And butterflies that play
At hide and seek with clover,
And blossoms on the trees,
And sunshine bright, and showers,
And every cooling breeze.
Yes, thank you, God, for summer;
And always at my play
Help me, Thy child, remember
These gifts of Thine, I pray.
--Unknown
A Child's Prayer
Make me, dear Lord, polite and kind
To everyone, I pray.
And may I ask you how you find
Yourself, dear Lord, today?
--John Tabb
Grace
Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat,
Thank you for the birds that sing,
Thank you, God, for everything!
