1. I sing the mighty pow’r of God That made the mountains rise, That spread the flowing seas abroad, And built the lofty skies. I sing the wisdom that ordained The sun to rule the day; The moon shines full at His command, And all the stars obey.
2. I sing the goodness of the Lord That filled the earth with food; He formed the creatures with His Word, And then pronounced them good. Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed, Where’er I turn my eye: If I survey the ground I tread Or gaze upon the sky!
3. There’s not a plant or flow’r below But makes Thy glories known; And clouds arise, and tempests blow, By order from Thy throne; While all that borrows life from Thee Is ever in Thy care; And ev’rywhere that man can be, Thou, God, art present there.
