  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.
