This beautiful hymn about the beauty of God's creation is one of the most uplifting, cheerful hymns that exists! This video has the rustling grass (where I hear Him pass), the lilies, the expansive mountain ranges, and so many other views of the amazing landscapes and works God has made. The music is by Maltbie D. Babcock and is particularly classic and beautiful - hope you enjoy singing along!
For permission to use this video in a church service please click here, and if you enjoyed this rendition of this classic hymn, consider saving it or some of my other songs to your favourite Sunday or Inspirational playlist on Spotify or Apple Music to listen again in the future and help these songs reach more people. Even if your playlist has even just two likes, it does actually help so much with the song getting heard by others, and also makes my day to see that people are enjoying it in their everyday lives.
Listen to the stunningly beautiful lyric video here - so full of all the beauty of God's creation!
Lyrics - This is My Father's World
1 This is my Father's world,
And to my list'ning ears,
All nature sings, and round me rings
The music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world,
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas—
His hand the wonders wrought.
2 This is my Father's world,
The birds their carols raise;
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their Maker's praise.
This is my Father's world,
He shines in all that's fair;
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,
He speaks to me ev'rywhere.
3 This is my Father's world,
O let me ne'er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the Ruler yet.
This is my Father's world,
The battle is not done;
Jesus Who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and heaven be one.
