| 1 To your Creator God, Your great Preserver, raise, Ye creatures of his hand, Your highest notes of praise. Let ev'ry voice Proclaim his pow'r, His name adore, And loud rejoice. 2 Thou source of light and heat, Bright sov'reign of the day, Dispensing blessings round, With all-diffusive ray; From morn to night, With ev'ry beam, Record his name, Who made thee bright. 3 Fair regent of the night, With all thy starry train, Which rise in silent hosts, To gild the azure plain; Wtih countless rays Declare his name, Prolong the theme, Reflect his praise. 4 Let all the creatures join To celebrate his name, And all their various pow'rs Assist th'exalted theme. Let nature raise From ev'ry tongue A gen'ral song Of grateful praise. 5 But oh! from human tongues Should nobler praises flow; And ev'ry thankful heart With warm devotion glow. Your voices raise, Ye highly blest Above the rest; Declare his praise. | Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, Vol. 1 #42 (1760) Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #8 (1870) Hymns, Selected and Original: for public and private worship (1st ed.) #48 (1828) A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy: for the use of Evangelical Lutheran Churches; to which are added prayers for families and individuals #9 (1814) |
