Hymn of Grateful Praise
SSA divisi with Piano
A majestic hymn of gratitude, this new setting of the popular Pierpoint text soars. A rising ritornello: “Lauda, laudate Dominum” contrasts with the hymn verses.
Text
For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies;
For the love which from our birth,
Over and around us lies;
O Source of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise:
Lauda! Laudate Dominum!
For the wonder of each hour,
Of the day and of the night;
Hill and vale and tree and flow’r,
Sun and moon, and stars of light;
O Source of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of grateful praise:
Lauda! Laudate Dominum!
For the joy of ear and eye,
For the heart and mind’s delight;
For the mystic harmony,
Linking sense to sound and sight;
O Source of all, to Thee we raise
This, our hymn of joyful praise:
Lauda! Laudate Dominum!
Lauda! Laudate Dominum!
Lauda! Lauda! Lauda!
– Folliott S. Pierpoint (1835-1917)
