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.

That filled the earth with food;
He formed the creatures with his word,
And then pronounced them good.

Lord! how thy wonders are displayed
Where’er I turn mine eye!
If I survey the ground I tread,
Or gaze upon the sky.

And worship thee with trembling hope,
And penitential tears.

For thou hast stooped to ask of me
The love of this poor heart.

No mother, half so mild,
Bears and forbears as thou hast done
With me, thy sinful child.

Prostrate before thy throne to lie,
And gaze and gaze on thee.
