We Sing the Mighty Power of God
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 470 hymnals Scripture: Genesis 1 Lyrics: 1 We sing the mighty power of God
that made the mountains rise,
that spread the flowing seas abroad
and built the lofty skies.
We sing the wisdom that ordained
the sun to rule the day;
the moon shines full at his command,
and all the stars obey.
2 We 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 your wonders are displayed,
where'er we turn our eyes,
if we survey the ground we tread
or gaze upon the skies.
3 There's not a plant or flower below
but makes your glories known,
and clouds arise and tempests blow
by order from your throne;
while all that borrows life from you
is ever in your care,
and everywhere that we can be,
you, God, are present there.

the depths of love divine.

to the great Thee-in-One.

the light first had its birth,
on thee for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
on thee our Lord victorious,
the Spirit sent from heav'n,
and thus on thee most glorious,
a triple light was giv'n.

from this our day of rest,
we reach the rest remaining
to spirits of the blest.
To Holy Ghost be praises,
to Father and to Son;
the church her voice upraises
to thee, blest Three-in-One.
