Lyrics
(English folk tune, Lyrics by Richard Compton, 1917)
1. God, our Father made the daylight;
God, our Father made the night;
God made mountains, sea and sky,
And the white clouds floating high.
2. God, we thank Thee for the showers,
God, we thank Thee for the dew;
Mighty trees and flowers small,
God, our Father, gave them all.
