12 He only is the Maker
Of all things near and far; He paints the wayside flower, He lights the evening star; The winds and waves obey Him,
By Him the birds are fed; Much more to us, His children, He gives our daily bread. All good gifts, etc. |
3 We thank Thee, then, O Father, For all things bright and good, The seed-time and the harvest,
Our life, our health, our food, No gifts have we to offer,
For all Thy love imparts, But that which Thou desirest, Our humble, thankful hearts. All good gifts, etc.
Matthias Claudius, 1782. Tr. Jane M. Campbell, 1861 |
