I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day; the moon shines full at God’s command and all the stars obey. 2 I sing the goodness of the One that filled the earth with food; who formed the creatures with a word and then pronounced them good. O God, your 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 everywhere that I may be, you, God are present there.
