To God Who Makes All Lovely Things – Hymn Lyric
To God who makes all lovely things
How happy must our praises be!
Each day a new surprise he brings,
To make us glad is world to see.
How plentiful must be the mines
From which he gives his gold away;
In March he gives us celandines,
He gives buttercups in May.
He grows the wheat and never stops;
There’s none can count the blades of green;
And up among the elm-tree tops
As many thousand leaves are seen.
And when the wheat is bound in sheaves
He sends his wind among the trees,
And down come all the merry leaves
In yellow-twinkling companies.
On winter nights his quiet flakes
Come falling, falling all the night,
And when the world next morning wakes
It finds itself all shining white.
He makes the sea that shines afar
With waves that dance unceasingly;
And every single little star
That twinkles in the evening sky.
He made the people that I meet,
The many people great and small
In home and school, and down the street,
And he made me to love them all.
To God who makes all lovely things,
How happy must our praises be!
Each day a new surprise he brings,
To make us glad is world to see.
How plentiful must be the mines
From which he gives his gold away;
In March he gives us celandines,
He gives buttercups in May.
He grows the wheat and never stops;
There’s none can count the blades of green;
And up among the elm-tree tops,
As many thousand leaves are seen.
And when the wheat is bound in sheaves,
He sends his wind among the trees,
And down come all the merry leaves,
In yellow-twinkling companies.
On winter nights his quiet flakes
Come falling, falling all the night,
And when the world next morning wakes,
It finds itself all shining white.
He makes the sea that shines afar,
With waves that dance unceasingly;
And every single little star,
That twinkles in the evening sky.
He made the people that I meet,
The many people great and small
In home and school, and down the street,
And he made me to love them all.

In this hymn, we are reminded of the countless blessings and wonders that God has bestowed upon us. Each day, we are greeted with new surprises, as God fills the world with beauty and joy. The imagery of natures treasures and the changing seasons brings to light the abundance of Gods creations.
Take a moment to consider the delicate flowers that bloom in spring. In March, the celandines burst forth, filling fields and gardens with their vibrant colors. And then, as May arrives, buttercups grace us with their sunny presence. These simple flowers are a testament to Gods generosity and creativity He gives us the gift of beauty in even the smallest of things.

And when the time comes to harvest the wheat, God’s wind rustles through the trees, causing the leaves to come tumbling down in golden showers. It is a reminder of the cyclical nature of life the beauty of growth and abundance, followed by the gentle letting go of what is no longer needed.

As we wake up, we find ourselves surrounded by the pristine beauty of nature’s winter touch. The peacefulness and purity of the snow remind us of Gods ability to create moments of tranquility and renewal, even in the harshest of seasons.
Nature is not the only source of beauty that God has gifted us. He has also created the vast and shimmering sea, with waves that dance and sparkle under the sunlight. It is a sight that fills the heart with joy and wonder, reminding us of the vastness and power of Gods creation. And as a testament to his greatness, every single little star that twinkles in the evening sky is a reminder of the endless possibilities and mysteries that exist beyond our earthly realm.
But it is not only nature that God has created He has also blessed us with the presence of other people. From the many people we meet, great and small, to our friends and family, God has created each and every one of them. Whether it’s the friendly faces we see in our homes, schools, or on the streets, God has made them all. And in His wisdom, He has also created us to love and appreciate them.
In this hymn, we are called to recognize and cherish the beauty that surrounds us. Every flower, every leaf, every person we encounter is a reminder of God’s love and grace. We are reminded that we are part of a larger tapestry, intricately woven by the hands of our Creator.
So, let us offer our praises to God, for He is the source of all things lovely. Let our voices rise in gratitude for the blessings He has bestowed upon us. May we never tire of marveling at the wonders of nature and the people He has placed in our lives. In doing so, we will discover a deepening sense of joy and appreciation for the world around us, as we honor the One who makes all things beautiful.
