O Lord of heaven and earth and sea

O Lord of heaven and earth and sea,
to you all praise and glory be,
who loved us from eternity —
you give us all.

2. The golden sunshine, gentle air,
sweet flowers and fruit, your love declare;
when harvests ripen, you are there —
you give us all.

3. For peaceful homes and healthful days,
for all the blessings earth displays,
we owe you thankfulness and praise —
you give us all.

4. You did not spare your only Son,
but gave him for a world undone,
and freely with your holy One
you give us all.

5. You sent your Spirit from above
as wind and fire and gentle dove;
and in his gifts of power and love
you give us all.

6. For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven,
for means of grace and hopes of heaven,
Father, what can to you be given?
You give us all.

7. We lose what on ourselves we spend;
we have as treasure without end
whatever, Lord, to you we lend —
you give us all.

8. Father, from whom we all derive
our life, our gifts, our power to give:
O may we ever with you live;
you give us all.
