Arise All Things That God Has Made

Author: H. A. Brorson Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arise, all things that God has made And praise His name and glory; Each leaflet and each grassy blade Do tell a wondrous story. 2 Though kings of earth together show Their utmost strength and power, They could not make a leaflet grow On herb, or weed, or flower. 3 What shall I say when'er I walk Where flowers are abounding, And birds in song together talk, As thousand harps were sounding. 4 What would I say, if I could spy The secrets of the ocean, And see the myriad life go by In endless, streaming motion. 5 What shall I say when I behold The stars in countless numbers, And feel their smiling charm untold While nature sweetly slumbers. 6 What shall I say when I ascend To Him who made creation, And see the angel host attend His throne in glad elation. 7 What shall I say? Weak are my words And humble my opinion! How great Thy wisdom, Lord of lords, Thy might and Thy dominion! 8 Arise, ye nations of the earth, And lift your voice to heaven, Praise God in songs of joy and mirth, Who all these things hath given.
