Trinity Hymnal ‎#106

106. I sing th'almighty pow'r of God

1 I sing th'almighty pow'r of God,
That made the mountains rise,
That spread the flowing seas abroad,
And built the lofty skies,
And built the lofty skies.

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,
And then pronounced them good.

3 Lord! how thy wonders are displayed
Where'er I turn mine eye!
If I survey the ground I tread,
Or gaze upon the sky,
Or gaze upon the sky!

4 There's not a plant or flower below
But makes thy glories known;
And clouds arise, and tempests blow,
By order from thy throne,
By order from thy throne.

5 Creatures as numerous as they be
Are subject to thy care;
There's not a place where we can flee,
But God is present there,
But God is present there.

Amen.
