Lyrics

Lord of all, to Thee we raise Lord of all, to Thee we raise Our hymn of grateful praise FOR THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH Verse 1 For the beauty of the earth For the glory of the skies For the love which from our birth Over and around us lies Lord of all, to Thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise For the wonder of each hour Of the day and of the night Hill and vale and tree and flower Sun and moon and stars of light Lord of all, to Thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise Lord of all, to Thee we raise Our hymn of grateful praise NARRATOR September 16, 1620. A small ship sailed with 101 passengers from Plymouth, England, to the New World. They sought one thing—freedom to worship! Sixty-six people reached the tip of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Before going ashore, the men on board signed a written agreement, a document they called the Mayflower Compact. CHOIR “In the name of God, Amen. We, whose names are underwritten...having undertaken for the glory of God and advancement of the Christian faith...a voyage to plant the first colony...do by these present, solemnly and mutually, in the presence of God and one another, covenant and combine ourselves together....” WE GATHER TOGETHER Verse 1 We gather together to ask the Lord’s blessing He chastens and hastens His will to make known The wicked oppressing now cease from distressing Sing praises to His name, He forgets not his own NARRATOR Having been city dwellers in England, the settlers found themselves unprepared for the harsh wilderness. Within a few months, half of the Pilgrims had died. Perhaps it seemed their voyage had been in vain—that their quest for a new life had brought them only hardship. Yet with the help of the natives, the settlers learned to plant and grow crops. By the fall of 1621, they celebrated their first harvest with a feast, proclaiming it a day of prayer and thanksgiving to God. NOW THANK WE ALL OUR GOD Verse 1 Now thank we all our God With heart and hands and voices Who wondrous things hath done In whom His world rejoices Who, from our mothers’ arms Hath blest us on our way With countless gifts of love And still is ours today Lord of all, to Thee we raise Lord of all, to Thee we raise Our hymn of grateful praise NARRATOR And now we, as the Pilgrims before us, celebrate freedom and abundant blessings from our Heavenly Father. So let us join together and bring an offering of praise and thanksgiving to Almighty God. (adapted from Psalm 136) NARRATOR Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. CHOIR/CONGREGATION Give thanks to the God of gods. NARRATOR Give thanks to the Lord of lords. CHOIR/CONGREGATION To Him who alone does great wonders, who by His understanding made the heavens... NARRATOR Who spread out the earth upon the waters, who made the great lights... CHOIR/CONGREGATION The sun to govern the day... NARRATOR The moon and the stars to govern the night... CHOIR/CONGREGATION Who freed us from our enemies... NARRATOR Who gives food to every creature... CHOIR/CONGREGATION Give thanks to the Lord. NARRATOR Give thanks to the Lord! CHOIR/CONGREGATION Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! MY TRIBUTE Verse 1 How can I say thanks For the things You have done for me Things so undeserved Yet You gave to prove Your love for me? The voices of a million angels Could not express my gratitude All that I am and ever hope to be I owe it all to Thee Chorus To God be the glory To God be the glory To God be the glory For the things He has done With His blood He has saved me With His power He has raised me To God be the glory For the things He has done Bridge Just let me live my life Let it be pleasing, Lord, to Thee And should I gain any praise Let it go to Calvary Half Chorus With His blood He has saved me With His power He has raised me To God be the glory For the things He has done Tag To God be the glory For the things He has done...
