1 It is God's mercy gives us
The sunshine and the rain.
That paints in verdant beauty
The mountain and the plain.

2 By Him were all things fashioned
Around us and afar;
He made the earth and ocean,
And every shining star.

3 He made the pleasant Spring-time,
The Summer bright and warm,
The golden days of Autumn,
The Winter and the Storm.

4 He makes the glorious sunset,
The moon to sail on high;
He bids the breezes fan us
And thunder-clouds to fly.

5 He gives us every blessing,
To Him our lives we owe;
He sent His Son to save us
From sin and death and woe.
