1 That God, who made the worlds on high,
And air, and earth, and sea,
Own as thy God, and to his name
In homage bow the knee.
2 Let not a shape which hands have wrought
Of wood, or clay, or stone,
Be deem'd thy God, nor think him like
Aught thou hast seen or known.
3 Take not in vain the name of God:
Nor must thou ever dare,
To make thy falshood pass for truth,
By his dread name to swear.
4 That day on which he bids thee rest
From toil, to pray, and praise,
That day, keep holy to the Lord,
And consecrate it rays.
5 O may that God, who gave these laws,
Write them on every heart,
That all may feel their living power,
Nor from his paths depart!
