WEEK 2

I Sing The Mighty Power of God
Isaac Watts, 1715
The Heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. Psalm 19:1,2

This song was published in 1715 in a work entitled
Divine and Moral Songs for Children.
It incorporates a number of Scriptures to tell the story of Creation.
Watts' desire was for children to sing songs of faith
that they could understand.

I Sing The Mighty Power of God

I sing the might power of God that made the mountains rise,
That spread the flowing seas abroad, and built the lofty skies.
I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day;
The moon shines full at His command and all the stars obey.

I 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 wherever I turn my eyes;
If I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky!

There’s not a plant or flower below but makes Thy glories known;
And clouds arise and tempest 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 art present there.
