Verse 1:
This is my Father's world,
and to my listening ears
all nature sings, and round me rings
the music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world:
I rest me in the thought
of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
his hand the wonders wrought.

Verse 2:
This is my Father's world,
the birds their carols raise,
the morning light, the lily white,
declare their maker's praise.
This is my Father's world:
he shines in all that's fair;
in the rustling grass I hear him pass;
he speaks to me everywhere.

Verse 3:
This is my Father's world.
O let me ne'er forget
that though the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father's world:
why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King; let the heavens ring!
God reigns; let the earth be glad!

Nice technique. I'm not a guitar player, so usually these guitar demos bore me to tears. To have the vocals superimposed is a great idea. Good job! Nice guitar work, beautiful singing. One of my favorite hymns, too. Wish my worship would sing songs like that. Maybe when Chris Tomlin comes out with a version of it we will do it.

@coolram52 Thanks brother for your kind comments. Yes, this is a really lovely hymn and I'm glad you like it too. It does seems to be the trend nowadays that the older hymns are being sung less. LexBreStov's singing is wonderful and it's a privilege to be able to collaborate with her on this video.
