I sing of God,—the world he made,
The glorious light, the soothing shade;
Dale, plain and grove, and hill;
The wide and fathomless abyss,
Where nature joys in secret bliss,
And wisdom hides her skill.
“Tell them, I AM,” Jehovah said:
The listening earth did hear in dread;
And, smitten to the heart,
At once, above, beneath, around,
All nature, without voice or sound,
Replied, “ O LORD, THOU ART!”
