Our Great Redeemer's Praise ‎#4

4. I Sing the Almighty Power 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.
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 flower 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.
