We sing the almighty power of God,
Who bade the mountains rise,
Who spread the flowing seas abroad
And built the lofty skies.
We sing the wisdom that ordained
The sun to rule the day;
The moon shines to at his command,
And all the stars obey.
We sing the goodness of the Lord,
Who fills the earth with food,
Who formed his creatures by a word
And then pronounced them good.
Lord, how your wonders are displayed
Each time we turn our eyes
To view the ground on which we tread
Or gaze up at the skies!
There’s not a plant or flower below
But makes your glories known;
And clouds arise and tempests blow
By order from your throne.
On you each moment we depend;
If you withdraw, we die.
Oh, may we never god offend,
Our God, forever nigh!
