I Sing the Mighty Power of God

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: HOP2015 #21 (2015) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 I sing the mighty power 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 his command and all the stars obey. 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. Lord, how your 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 everywhere that I may be, you, God, are present there.
