God of the Glorious Sunshine

God of the glo­ri­ous sun­shine

God of re­fresh­ing rain

Whose voice bids earth awak­en

And clothe it­self again.

With life of rich­est beau­ty

In plant

and flow­er

and tree;

Thou God of light and splen­dor

We rise and wor­ship Thee.

God of the hill and mount­ain

Of val­ley and of dale

Whose fin­ger paints the rain­bows;

Thy beau­ties nev­er fail

To raise our souls in won­der

And turn our thoughts to Thee;

Thou God of liv­ing na­ture

We stand and wor­ship Thee.

God of the bu­sy day­time

God of the qui­et night

Whose peace per­vades the dark­ness

And greets us with the light;

Safe with Thy pre­sence near us

Wherever we may be

Thou God

our great pro­tect­or

We love and wor­ship Thee.

God of the whole cre­ation

God of all life be­low

We seek Thy near­er pre­sence

Thy grand­er life to know;

When we

Thy height­ened splen­dor

Thy great­er glo­ries see

Thou God of all cre­ation

We still shall wor­ship Thee.
