Almighty God, thy wondrous works
Of providence and grace,
An angel’s perfect mind exceed,
And all our pride abase.
Stupendous heights! amazing depths!
Creatures in vain explore;
Or if a transient glimpse we gain,
‘Tis faint, and quickly o’er.
Though all the mysteries lie concealed
Beyond what we can see,
Grant us the knowledge of ourselves,
The knowledge, Lord, of thee.
