We had to sing it!  Four lines - your one, then three I've forgotten, then a long 'Aaaaaameeeeeen'.

The tune is now stuck in my head ::)

Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat.
Thank you for the birds that sing,
Thank you God for everything.

              Wonderful!!   Thankyou!

Don't suppose you know "Summer has come from the Summer/Sunny Land"

My Dad reminded me of this song/hymn a few weeks ago... he said I used to "pipe it out"

Was it:

Summer has come from the sunny lands,
Summer is here again,
Bringing the birdies to sing their songs
In every wood and lane.

Chirruping, chirruping, loud and sweet,
High in the rocking tree,
Dear little birdies I think you sing
Your prettiest songs to me.

Tell me dear birdies I’d like to know
who was it taught you to sing?
Who was it taught you the way to fly.
and gave you each tiny wing?

The dear Lord above us all,
Loving and kind and true,
Twas he who has taught us the way to sing
and taught us the way to fly too

Thank you dear birdies for telling me,
I am so glad to know,
Now if my friends ask me, I can say,
A little bird told me so!

I have to admit - I had a helping hand from Google! ;D ;D

Partial memory to start with, but Google added extra verses ;)
