One of my favourites. Sang this in my local choir for 2 years and it’s very fitting I came across it today for personal reasons. A treasured song full of joy ✨⭐️✨
Some of these songs cannot but bring Tears of JOY to your eyes, when you remember that The Creator and Sustainer of the Heavens and the Earth,is Your FATHER , and you are already A Citizen of Heaven for ever with Him; beholding the Face of Our Saviour and LORD! OUR GOD IS AWESOME . O FATHER, help us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto Wisdom. We PRAISE YOU FATHER, IN JESUS’ NAME AMEN 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.
this is the last song I ever sang with my middle school choir. we sang it as our last of 3 songs for UIL. thanks to corona, we don’t get to have a spring concert, and a proper goodbye, but I’m glad our last song together was this one. it’s so beautiful and now it will ALWAYS have a very special place in my heart.
I remember singing this song when I was in 6th grade almost 15+ years ago. I remember how much I loved this song. I’m so happy I found it again, it’s a beautiful hymn of praise to our Heavenly Father. Our king of Kings and Lord of Lords, may the Glory be His forever and ever. It brought so many tears to my eyes.
Thank you beautiful choir for this uplifting and joyous rendition of John Rutter's "For the Beauty of the Earth"! I absolutely Love this hymn and it lifts my heart up to God Our Creator. Thank you all and God bless you. Suzanne from Monza Italy!!!
I had not heard this wondrous hymn until recently by way of the World Famous Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square. I fell in love with its melody & hopeful lyrics & began searching for other renditions. IMHO, The Vocal Arts sound the very best of all the Utube videos I have listened to. . .And for a relatively small choir made up of youth they bring a unique sound & heartfelt feeling beyond compare.
Oh this song is so awesome. Sung by the youth of today. I commend the choir director for introducing this song to them. Glad to see they have a love for classics and masterfully composed music. There is much hope for our future and young leaders. God bless them as they go forward in life :)
my mom leads a choir and i've been hearing the people singing this song since i was little so this brought me a lot of memories back (even if the version i heard was always on german). and everytime i get to sing this song i just get so happy and filled with joy, it's just too beautiful
While listening this more than awesome and awe inspiring hymn I pictured myself ascending up to heaven in the arms of my lord and Savior Jesus the Christ .
This is beautiful! Omg! They sing very much good! I love it! I'm trying to sing this music, because I'm hypnotized! Love it! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘 Kisses for this singers! And good luck for outher concerts!
Lord to Thee we raise, this our hymn of grateful praise! May the Lord of the whole earth receive joyful praise and adoration from His creation that is due to Him alone. To Him Be Glory!
i'm actually singing it in choir right now and I wish we had such strong altos, I would love to have some strong altos, then me and the rest of the sopranos wouldn't feel as if we are the only ones singing....
For my mum who passed away 3 Weeks ago ..she was my life
❤
May the Lord have you consolation
She lives on through you sweet sister. God bless you ❤❤❤❤

For the beauty of the earth
For the beauty of the skies
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies
Over and around us lies
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise
For the beauty of the hour
Of the day and of the night
Hill and vale and tree and flower
Sun and moon and stars of light
Sun and moon and stars of light
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise
For the joy of human love
Brother, sister, parent, child
Friends on earth and friends above
For all gentle thoughts and mild
For all gentle thoughts and mild
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise
For each perfect gift of thine
To our race so freely given
Graces human and divine
Flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n
Flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn, our joyful hymn of praise
This our joyful hymn of praise
One of my favourites. Sang this in my local choir for 2 years and it’s very fitting I came across it today for personal reasons. A treasured song full of joy ✨⭐️✨

Im doing this song for my choir about next month and im in primary school.................................. 😎 😎 😎 😜 😝 😛 😊
I'm in middle and we are doing this song.
You must not be in public school, they won't allow sacred music.
i'm actually singing it in choir right now and I wish we had such strong altos, I would love to have some strong altos, then me and the rest of the sopranos wouldn't feel as if we are the only ones singing....
I love this song! And you sang it so perfect with your heavenly voices and great conductor!
