Anyone ever been to a funeral and sang that song??

There is a line that goes ~ "The purple headed mountain"

Can someone explain what that means?

 

you'er just trying to be rude ar'nt you?

 

No not really.

Its a proper song and that must mean something

 

At a funeral It's quite common for weddings (I think we had it - can't remember )

Refrain:
All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God made them all.

Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colours,
He made their tiny wings.

Refrain

The purple-headed mountain,
The river running by,
The sunset and the morning,
That brightens up the sky;

Refrain

The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one;

Refrain

The tall trees in the greenwood,
The meadows for our play,
The rushes by the water,
To gather every day;

Refrain

He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell
How great is God Almighty,
Who has made all things well.

Refrain
