I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THESE,
THE BUZZ OF BEES, THE BIRDS IN TREES;
THE SOFTLY BLOWING EVENING BREEZE;
EVEN POLLEN THAT MAKES ME SNEEZE.
NOTHING OF SPRING CAN ME DISPLEASE.
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THESE.

I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THOSE,
THE SUN THAT GLOWS ON CRIMSON ROSE;
THE CROPS FROM WHICH THEY MAKE MY CLOTHES
THE LOVELY SMELLS THAT REACH MY NOSE
BEAUTY THAT INSPIRES RHYME AND PROSE
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THOSE.

I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THIS
THE PEACEFUL BLISS, THE MOON LIGHT KISS
THE BUTTERFLY FROM CHRYSALIS
FLOWERS BRIGHT FROM DARK ABYSS.
ABSENCE OF THE PESSIMIST
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL THIS.

I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THAT
THE FRISKY CAT, THE FRIGHTENING BAT.
THE SIBLING THAT CAN BE A BRAT;
COWS THAT EAT TILL THEY GET FAT.
GREAT THINGS ARE EVERYWHERE YOU ARE AT
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THAT.

I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR EVERYTHING
YOUR LOVE CAN BRING, IN TIME OF SPRING
THE THINGS THAT CRAWL, THE THINGS THAT SWING
THE THINGS THAT SWIM OR GO BY WING.
THEY ALL JOIN IN AND WITH ME SING
LORD I THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.
