All things bright and beautiful, <br /> All creatures great and small, <br /> All things wise and wonderful, <br /> The Lord God made them all. <br /> <br /> Each little flower that opens, <br /> Each little bird that sings, <br /> He made their glowing colours, <br /> He made their tiny wings. <br /> <br /> The rich man in his castle, <br /> The poor man at his gate, <br /> God made them, high or lowly, <br /> And ordered their estate. <br /> <br /> The purple-headed mountain, <br /> The river running by, <br /> The sunset, and the morning, <br /> That brightens up the sky; <br /> <br /> The cold wind in the winter, <br /> The pleasant summer sun, <br /> The ripe fruits in the garden, <br /> He made them every one. <br /> <br /> The tall trees in the greenwood, <br /> The meadows where we play, <br /> The rushes by the water, <br /> We gather every day;-- <br /> <br /> He gave us eyes to see them, <br /> And lips that we might tell, <br /> How great is God Almighty, <br /> Who has made all things well.<br /><br />Cecil Frances Alexander<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/maker-of-heaven-and-earth-all-things-bright-and/
