"And the moon is a sliver of silver 
Like a shaving that fell on the floor of a Carpenter's shop 
And every house must have it's builder 
And I awoke in the house of God 
Where the windows are mornings and evenings 
Stretched from the sun 
Across the sky north to south 
And on my way to early meeting 
I heard the rocks crying out 
I heard the rocks crying out 

Be praised for all Your tenderness by these works of Your hands 
Suns that rise and rains that fall to bless and bring to life Your land 
Look down upon this winter wheat and be glad that You have made 
Blue for the sky and the color green that fills these fields with praise 

And the wrens have returned and they're nesting 
In the hollow of that oak where his heart once had been 
And he lifts up his arms in a blessing for being born again 
And the streams are all swollen with winter 
Winter unfrozen and free to run away now 
And I'm amazed when I remember 
Who it was that built this house 
And with the rocks I cry out 

Be praised for all Your tenderness by these works of Your hands 
Suns that rise and rains that fall to bless and bring to life Your land 
Look down upon this winter wheat and be glad that You have made 
Blue for the sky and the color green 

Be praised for all Your tenderness by these works of Your hands 
Suns that rise and rains that fall to bless and bring to life Your land 
Look down upon this winter wheat and be glad that You have made 
Blue for the sky and the color green that fills these fields with prais
