One of the ways that God speaks to and calls attention to himself is through the beauty of nature. The sun, moon, stars, animals in their diversity makes any thoughtful heart begin to wonder how these things came into being and power behind their sustenance. This paper is a hymnological analysis and interpretation of the Hymn “For The Beauty of the Earth” to reveal the love, providence, greatness and awesomeness of God the creator of the universe. It attempts to explore the mind of the lyricist as implied through the hymn text descriptively and theologically to up come with some attributes of God as revealed through creation. This was done through a historical survey of the life of the author, background to the hymn, poetic and hymn text interpretation from which the researcher drew out the author’s opinions about God and implications including reasons why humans should respond in gratitude and praise to the kindness of God and in deeds of love to mankind, animals and responsible use and management of the earth.
