New Wonders of Thy Mighty Hand

 

VERSE 1

New wonders of Thy mighty hand,

Lord, we today admire,

Writ on the firmament above

In glittering orbs of fire.

 

VERSE 2

The sun is ruler of the day,

The silver moon of night,

The starry hosts adorn the sky

In ordered ranks of light.

 

VERSE 3

But e’en that glorious sun must set,

And knows his going down,

That silver moon must wax and wane,

The stars their courses own.

 

VERSE 4

Still in an ever changing round

The daylight comes and goes;

But Thou art evermore the same,

No change Thy mercy knows.

 

VERSE 5

Why waver then our troubled hearts?

Thine is a Father’s care;

And they, eternal life who seek,

Eternal life shall share.

 

VERSE 6

All praise, all glory be ascribed

To God the One in Three,

Who bids us cast our care on Him,

To Him for comfort flee.
