Baptist Hymnal 1991 ‎#49

49. Many and Great, O God

1. Many and great, O God, are Thy works,
Maker of earth and sky.
Thy hands have set the heavens with stars;
Thy fingers spread the mountains and plains.
Lo, at Thy word the waters were formed;
Deep seas obey Thy voice.

2. Grant unto us communion with Thee,
Thou star abiding One;
Come unto us and dwell with us;
With Thee are found the gifts of life.
Bless us with life that has no end,
Eternal life with Thee.
