We Give Thee Thanks

Verse 1

God of the earth, the sky, the sea, maker of all above, below, creation lives and moves in you; your present life through all does flow.

Verse 2

Your love is in the sunshine’s glow, your life is in the quick’ning air; when lightnings flash and storm-winds blow, there is your power, your law is there.

Verse 3

We feel your calm at evening’s hour, your grandeur in the march of night; and when the morning breaks in power, we hear your word, “Let there be light.”

Verse 4

But higher far, and far more clear, you in our spirit we behold; your image and yourself are there — indwelling God, proclaimed of old.
