| | | LET my voice ring out and over the earth, | |
| Through all the grief and strife, | |
| With a golden joy in a silver mirth: | |
| Thank God for Life! | |
| |
| Let my voice swell out through the great abyss | 5 |
| To the azure dome above, | |
| With a chord of faith in the harp of bliss: | |
| Thank God for Love! | |
| |
| Let my voice thrill out beneath and above, | |
| The whole world through: | 10 |
| O my Love and Life, O my Life and Love, | |
| Thank God for you! | | | | |
