1. They speak no word that can be heard,
The flowers sweet and fair;
Yet as they grow and joy bestow,
God’s love they all declare.
Refrain:
Each flower tells the story
Of God’s great love and glory;
Roses, daisies, violets blue,
All repeat the story true,
God is love, our God is love;
Each flower tells the story,
God is love, our God is love;
Each flower tells the story.
2. Each flower face is full of grace
In these bright summer days,
In gardens rare, or wild or fair
Beside the common ways.
3. So children here the world may cheer,
No matter where they dwell;
Be kind and true, God’s errands do,
His love to others tell.
