Hymn 227
7 7 7 7 7 7
1. Earth, with her ten thousand flowers,
Air, with all its beams and showers,
Heaven's infinite expanse,
Ocean's resplendent countenance -
All around, and all above,
Hath this record - God is love.

2. Sounds among the vales and hills,
In the woods and by the rills,
Of the breeze and of the bird,
By the gentle murmur stirred -
Sacred songs, beneath, above,
Have one chorus - God is love.

3. All the hopes that sweetly start
From the fountain of the heart;
All the bliss that ever comes,
To our earthly - human homes -
All the voices from above,
Sweetly whisper - God is love.
