For air and sunshine pure and sweet,
We thank our heavenly Father;
For grass that grows beneath our feet,
We thank our heavenly Father;
For lovely flowers and blossoms gay,
For trees and woods in bright array,
For birds that sing in joyful lay,
We thank our heavenly Father.
For leafy trees with fruit and shade.
We thank our heavenly Father;
For things of beauty He has made,
We thank our heavenly Father;
For daily blessings, full and free,
For leading where we cannot see,
For all His care o’er you and me,
We thank our heavenly Father.
For Jesus, born a little child,
We thank our heavenly Father;
For Jesus, loving, kind, and mild,
We thank our heavenly Father;
For Jesus Christ, the children’s Friend,
Who to us all His love doth send;
For Him who helps us to the end,
We thank our heavenly Father.
