[Verse]

C          G        C
This is my Father's world, 
    F     C         G
and to my listening ears 
    C       Am         F     G   C
all nature sings, and round me rings 
    F      G     C
the music of the spheres.  
     C     F  G     C
This is my Father's world:  
   F      G      C
I rest me in the thought 
   C         Am        F     G   C
of rocks and trees, of skies and seas; 
    F        G       C
his hand the wonders wrought.

[Verse]
C          G        C
This is my Father's world, 
    F           C      G
the birds their carols raise, 
    C       Am         F    C
the morning light, the lily white, 
    F         G       C
declare their maker's praise.  
     C     F  G     C
This is my Father's world:  
   F         G          C
he shines in all that's fair; 
       C        Am      F    G   C
in the rustling grass I hear him pass; 
   F            G    C
he speaks to me everywhere.

C          G        C
This is my Father's world.  
  F      C     G
O let me ne'er forget 
     C         Am           F      C
that though the wrong seems oft so strong, 
    F      G     C
God is the ruler yet.  
     C     F  G     C
This is my Father's world:  
    F         G        C
why should my heart be sad?  
    C       Am    F       G       C
The Lord is King; let the heavens ring!  
    F               G        C
God reigns; let the earth be glad!
