Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Worship (3rd ed.) #502 (1986) First Line: I sing the mighty pow'r of God Lyrics: 1 I sing the mighty pow’r of God
That made the mountains rise,
That spread the flowing seas abroad,
And built the lofty skies.
I sing the wisdom that ordained
The sun to rule the day;
The moon shines full at God’s command,
And all the stars obey.
2 I sing the goodness of the Lord
That filled the earth with food;
That formed creation with a word,
And then pronounced it good.
Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed,
Where’er I turn my eye;
If I survey the ground I tread,
Or gaze upon the sky!
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 ev'rywhere that I may be,
O God, be present there. Topics: Creation; Ecology; Faith; Food; Guidance; Joy; Life; Majesty and Power; Praise; Presence of God; Providence; Song; Wisdom Scripture: Genesis 1:12 Languages: English Tune Title: MOZART
