1 Triumphant Lord! thy goodness reigns
Thro' all the wide celestial plains;
And its full streams redundant flow
Down to th' abodes of men below.
2 Thro' nature's works thy glories shine;
The cares of providence are thine;
And thou hast rais'd within our frame,
A fairer temple to thy name.
3 O give to ev'ry human heart
To taste, and feel, how good thou art;
With grateful love, and rev'rend fear,
To know how blest thy children are.
4 Let nature burst into a song:
Ye echoing hills, the notes prolong!
Earth, seas, and stars, your anthems raise,
All vocal with your Maker's praise!
5 Join, O my soul! the gen'ral song;
To thee its sweetest notes belong.
Blest above all by love divine,
To praise is eminently thine.
