GRH 018 I Sing the Mighty Power of God

(1)
I sing the mighty power 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 everywhere that man can be,
Thou, God, art present there.
