1. Through
all the world below God is seen all around, search hills and valleys through,
there He’s found. The growing of the corn, the lily and the thorn, the pleasant
and forlorn, all declare God is there; in meadows dressed in green, God is seen.
See springing waters rise, fountains flow, rivers run, the
mist that veils the sky hides the sun. Then down the rain doth pour, the ocean,
it doth roar and beat upon the shore, and all praise, in their ways, the God
who ne’er declines His designs. The sun with all his rays speaks of God as he
flies, the comet in her blaze ”God,” she cries; the shining of the stars, the
moon, when she appears, His awful name declares; see them fly through the sky
and join the solemn sound all around.
