The Beautiful World

There’s a beau­ti­ful world

with its val­leys of green

With its ev­er­green mounts and bright riv­ers be­tween;

With its for­ests of shade

and its moss­es and flow­ers

And its sun­shine and mu­sic to bright­en the hours.

’Tis a beau­ti­ful world in the care of our God

And the feet of our Sav­ior its path­ways have trod;

’Tis a beau­ti­ful world in the care of our God

And the feet of our Sav­ior its path­ways have trod;

Oh

the beau­ti­ful world

with its star-light­ed dome

Ever arch­ing with az­ure sweet vine-shad­ed homes;

With its fond hearts of love giv­ing bless­ings so sweet

And that bright­en the path­ways here an­der our feet.

Oh

the beau­ti­ful world

’tis the val­ley of time

And it touch­es the shore of the heav­en­ly clime;

And I’ll cling to its beau­ty with ten­der­est love

Till I’m called to the joy of the sweet home above.
