Oh who is like the Mighty One,
Whose throne is in the sky!
Who compasseth the universe
With his all-searching eye;
At whose creative we: appeared
The dry land and the sea:
My spirit thirsts for thee, O Lord,
My spirit. thirsts for thee!
Around him suns and systems swim
In harmony and light;
Before him harps angelic hymn
His praises day an night,
Yet to the contrite, day and night,
In mercy turneth he:
My spirit thirsts for thee, O Lord,
My spirit thirsts for thee!
Yes! though unlimited his works,
His power upholds them all;
He clothes the lilies of the field,
And marks the sparrow’s fall:
Who listens to the raven’s cry,
Will bend his ear to me;
My spirit thirsts for thee, O Lord,
My spirit thirsts for thee!
