Verse 1:

A                     F#m  D   A
We sing the greatness of   our God

     D    A   Bm7  E     A
That made the moun-tains rise,

     A                  F#m  D   A
That spread the flowing seas a - broad

    D     A   Bm7   E  A
And built the lof - ty skies.

Verse 2:

We sing the goodness of the Lord
That filled the earth with food;
He formed the creatures with His word
And then pronounced them good.
Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed
Where'er we turn our eyes;
In every season of the year,
And through the changing skies.


Verse 3:

There's not a plant or flower below
But makes Thy glories known;
And clouds arise and tempests blow
By order from Thy throne,
While all that borrows life from Thee
Is ever in Thy care,
And everywhere that man can be,
Thou, God, are present there.
