Dr. Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David ‎#182b

182b. Among the princes, earthly Gods

1 Among the princes, earthly Gods,
There's none hath pow'r divine;
Nor is their nature, mighty Lord!
Nor are their works like thine.

2 The nations thou hast made shall bring
Their off'rings round thy throne:
For thou alone dost wond'rous things,
For thou art God alone.

3 Lord, I would walk with holy feet:
Teach me thine heav'nly ways,
And my poor scatter'd thoughts unite
In God my Father's praise.

4 Great is thy mercy, and my tongue
Shall those sweet wonders tell,
How by thy grace my sinking soul
Rose from the deeps of hell.
