Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #24 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: We sing th'almighty pow'r of God Lyrics: 1 We sing th'almighty pow'r of God,
Who bade the mountains rise,
Who spread the flowing seas abroad,
And built the lofty skies.
2 We sing the wisdom that ordain'd
The sun to rule the day;
The moon shines full at his command,
And all the stars obey.
3 We sing the goodness of the Lord,
Who fills the earth with food;
Who form'd the creatures by a word,
And then pronounc'd them good.
4 Lord, how thy wonders are display'd,
Where'er we turn our eyes:
Whether we view the ground we tread,
Or gaze upon the skies!
5 There's not a plant nor flow'r below,
But makes thy glories known;
And clouds arise, and tempests blow,
By order from thy throne.
6 On him each moment we depend;
If he withdraw, we die.
Oh may we never God offend,
Who is forever nigh! Topics: Of God The Works of God Languages: English
