10. My Father's World (Maltbie D. Babcock, 1901)

Different Good
by Homesick Prodigals

       
Lyrics:

This is my Father's world

And to my listening ears

All nature sings, and round me 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



This is my Father's world

The birds their carols raise

The morning light, the lily white

Declare their Maker's praise



This is my Father's world

He shines in all that's fair

In the rustling grass I hear Him pass

He speaks to me everywhere



This is my Father's world

O let me ne'er forget

That though the wrong seems oft so strong

God is the Ruler yet



This is my Father's world

Why should my heart be sad?

The Lord is King: let the heavens ring!

God reigns; let earth be glad!
