Song Lyrics
God of the earth, the sky, the sea
Maker of all above, below
Creation lives and moves in Thee
Thy present life through all doth flow
Thy love is in the sunshine's glow
Thy life is in the quickening air
When lightnings flash and stormwinds blow
There is Thy power; Thy law is there
We feel Thy calm at evening's hour
Thy grandeur in the march of night
And, when the morning breaks in power
We hear Thy word, "Let there be light!"
But higher far, and far more clear
Thee in man's spirit we behold
Thine image and Thyself are there
The indwelling God, proclaimed of old
