All things bright and beauteous <br />All creatures great and small, <br />All things wise and wondrous, <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/all-things-bright-and-beauteous/
