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.
