All things bright and beautiful, All creatures great and small, All things wise and wonderful, The Lord God made them all. Each little flower that opens, Each little bird that sings, He made their glowing colours, He made their tiny wings. The rich man in his castle, The poor man at his gate, God made them, high or lowly, And order'd their estate. The purple headed mountain, The river running by, The sunset and the morning, That brightens up the sky. He gave us eyes to see them, And lips that we might tell How great is God Almighty, Who has made all things well. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE CEMETERY BY THE SEA by PAUL VALERY THE FLESH AND THE SPIRIT by ANNE BRADSTREET HYMN FOR EPIPHANY by REGINALD HEBER THE DOVE by ABUL HASAN OF SEVILLE THE ARGONAUTS (ARGONAUTICA): THE SAILING OF THE ARGO by APOLLONIUS RHODIUS TRIOLET: THOSE VIOLETS BLUE by H.
