Grateful Praise | |
| | Description: | Original (sold) 17 ˝”x12”, white gouache text written over pasted D’Arches paper. | | Text: | For the beauty of the earth... For the glory of the skies. For the love which from our birth... Over and around us lies. For the wonder of each hour... Of the day and of the night. Hill and vale and tree and flower... Sun and moon and stars of light. For the joy of human love... Brother, sister, parent, child. Friends on earth and friends above... For all gentle thoughts and mild. For Thy church that evermore... Lifteth holy hands above. Offering upon every shore... Her pure sacrifice of love. Christ our God, to Thee we raise... this, our hymn of grateful praise. - Folliott S. Pierpoint |
