Verse 1
D
One morning when the
A
world was new,
G
A
D
and first we saw the sun,
Em
The Lord lay down to rest a while,
G
A
so pleased with what he'd done.
G
And of all the creatures he had made,
A
he loved the man the best,
D
Em
And so he placed into his hands
G
A
D
the fate of all the rest.

An d all these things I give to you,
A
to keep and to protect,
From the greatest star, the big blue whale,
G
D
to the tiniest insect,
G
To rule with love and kindness,
A
D
the weak, the wild, the strong,
Em
And treat my creatures gently,
G
A
D
only you know right from wrong.
A
But man was so conceited
G
A
D
that he couldn't see the worth
Of all the other creatures
Em
G
A
that fill this lovely earth.
G
And one by one he hunted them
A
for food and sport and greed
D
Em
And one by one they disappeared,
G
A

Each species and each breed.
And all these things I give to you,
A

After many years had passed,
G
A
D
The Lord came down to see
Em
The man and all the others
G
A
That he'd left so wild and free.
G
But where are all my silver streams
A
On forests dark and green?
D
Em
There was only dust and desert
G
A
D
wherever man had been
And all these things I give to you
A
to keep and to protect
From the greatest owl,
the big blue whale,
G
D
to the tiniest insect
G
To rule with love and kindness,
A
D
the weak, the wild, the strong
Em
And treat my creatures gently,
G
A
D
Only you know right from wrong.
A
Where are all my animals,
G
A
D
The hippo an d the whale,
A
D
Em
And the fish that filled the oceans
G
A
Before your ship set sail?
G
The lion and the tiger,
A
D
And the elephant so tall,
A
D
Em
I left you as their keeper,
G
A
D
do you not recall?
A
D
That all these things I gave to you,
to keep and to protect
A
From the greatest star,
the big blue whale,
G
D
to the tiniest insect

To rule with love and kindness,
A

the weak, the wild, the strong

And treat my creatures gently,
G
A

only you know right from wrong.
