VERSE 1:

This is my Father's world,
And to my lis'ning ears,
All nature sings and 'round my 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.

VERSE 2:

Men
This is my father' world,
The birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their makers praise.

Women
This is my father' world,
He shine in all that's fair:
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,
He speaks to me ev'ry-where.

VERSE 3

Women
This is my father' world,

Men
O let me ne'er forget,

Women
Ne'er forget,

All
That though the wrong,
seems oft so strong,
God is the ruler yet, ruler yet.
This is my father's world: This battle is not done;
Jesus who died shall be satisfied,
And earth and heav'n be one,
And earth and heav'n be one.
