Evangelical Lutheran hymnal ‎#167

167. We sing th' almighty pow'r of God

1 We sing th' almighty power of God
Who made the mountains rise,
Who spread the flowing seas abroad
And built the lofty skies.

2 We sing the wisdom that ordained
The sun to rule the day;
The moon shines, too, at His command,
And all the stars obey.

3 We sing the goodness of the Lord,
Who fills the earth with food;
Who formed His creatures by a word,
And then pronounced them good.

4 Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed,
Where'er we turn our eyes,
Whether we view the ground we tread,
Or gaze upon the skies!

5 But far more glorious is Thy grace
Revealed in Christ, Thy Son,
In whom we see a Father's face
And worship at His throne.
