172b. A general song of praise to God

1 Among the princes, earthly gods,
There’s none hath pow'r divine;
Nor is their nature, mighty Lord,
Nor are their works like thine.

2 The nations thou hast made shall bring
Their off'rings round thy throne;
For thou alone dost wondrous things,
For thou art God alone.

3 Lord, I would walk with holy feet;
Teach me thine heav'nly ways,
And all my wand'ring thoughts unite
In God my Father’s praise.

4 Great is thy mercy, and my tongue
Shall those sweet wonders tell,
How by thy grace my sinking soul
'Rose from the depths of hell.
