Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Europe, 1840

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.

Lyrics from Relief Society Song Book, 1919, no. 14

1. Earth, with her ten thousand flow'rs,
Air, with all its beams and show'rs,
Heaven's infinite expanse,
Sea's respendent countenance,
All around and all above,
Bear 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.
