Hymn 012 -1

1a	這是天父世界， 我們側耳要聽， 宇宙歌唱，四圍響應， 星辰作樂同聲。

This is my Father’s world,
And to my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings
The music of the spheres.

Hymn 012 -2

1b	這是天父世界， 我心滿有安寧； 樹木花草，蒼天碧海， 述說天父全能。

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.

Hymn 012 -3

2a	這是天父世界， 小鳥展翅飛鳴， 清晨明亮，好花美麗， 證明天理精深。

This is my Father’s world,
The birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white,
Declare their Maker’s praise.

Hymn 012 -4

2b	這是天父世界， 祂愛普及萬千； 風吹之草將祂表現， 天父充滿世間。

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.

Hymn 012 -5

3a	這是天父世界， 求主叫我不忘： 罪惡雖然好像得勝， 天父卻仍掌管。

This is my Father’s world,
O let me ne’er forget
That tho’the wrong seems oft so strong,
God is the Ruler yet.

Hymn 012 -6

3b	這是天父世界， 我心不必憂傷； 我主作王，天地同唱， 歌聲充滿萬方。

This is my Father’s world:
Why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King: let the heavens ring!
God reigns: let earth be glad!
