This Is My Fathers World
[Verse 1]
D A G A D A
This is my Father's world, and to my listening ears
G A D/A A D A D A A7 D
All nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres.
G A D G A
This is my Father's world, I rest me in the thought
G D A D/A A D A D A A7 D
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas His hand the wonders wrought.
[Verse 2]
D A G A D A
This is my Father's world, the birds their carols raise,
G A D/A A D A D A A7 D
The morning light, the li - ly white, declare their Maker's praise.
G A D G A
This is my Father's world, He shines in all that's fair,
G D A D/A A D A D A A7 D
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass, He speaks to me everywhere.
[Verse 3]
D A G A D A
This is my Father's world. O let me ne'er forget
G A D/A A D A D A A7 D
That thought the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the Ruler yet.
G A D G A
This is my Father's world, the battle is not done,
G D A D/A A D A D A A7 D
Jesus who died shall be sa-tis-fied, and earth and heaven be one.
