Many and Great, O God

Joseph Renville (1842) • English

Primary Scripture: Genesis 1-2

Verse 1

Many and great, O God, are thy works, Maker of earth and sky; Thy hands have set the heavens with stars; Thy fingers spread the mountains and plains. Lo, at thy word the waters were formed; Deep seas obey thy voice.

Verse 2

Grant unto us communion with thee, Thou star-abiding one; Come unto us and dwell with us; With thee are found the gifts of life. Bless us with life that has no end, Eternal life with thee.
