This is my father's world

      D     A7       D
This is my Father's world,
    G           D    A
And to my listening ears
     D       Bm       G     A  D
All nature sings and round me rings
     D    A7        D
The music of the spheres.
     D      G  A     D
This is my Father's world;
   G               D
I rest me in the thought
A7  D          Bm        G    A   D
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas
     D        A7      D
His hand the wonders wrought.

      D     A7       D
This is my Father's world,
    G            D      A
The birds their carols raise;
     D       Bm        G  A   D
The morning light, the li-ly white
   D           A7      D
Declare their Maker's praise.
     D      G  A     D
This is my Father's world,
    G                    D
He shines in all that's fair.
A7      D        Bm      G    A   D
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,
     D       A7       D
He speaks to me everywhere.

      D     A7       D
This is my Father's world,
   G           D    A
O let me ne'er forget
     D           Bm          G   A  D
That though the wrong seems oft so strong,
     D      A7    D
God is the ruler yet.
     D      G  A     D
This is my Father's world;
     G             D
The battle is not done
A7     D        Bm       G    A     D
Jesus who died shall be sa - tis - fied
     D         A7        D
And earth and heaven be one.
