Unto the Lord of All Creation

Unto the Lord of all cre­ation

Thy voice

my soul

in an­thems raise.

Let ev­ery heart a fit ob­la­tion

Bring unto Him with songs of praise.

O con­tem­plate in hum­ble­ness

The pow­er and rich­es of his grace.

In Him we live and have our be­ing;

And all the hosts of Heav’n and earth

The liv­ing God

all wise

all see­ing

Thro’ His own Spir­it brought to birth.

His ho­ly name

writ in His Word

Thro’ all the uni­verse is heard.

The Lord who laid the earth’s foun­da­tion

And for the stars their course de­creed

Whose hand hath or­dered all cre­ation

Provideth for our ev­ery need;

For God is love: the Fa­ther’s care

His small­est child shall du­ly share.

From out the gloom mine eye des­cri­eth

The Mak­er’s foot­prints in the sky;

The star­ry chor­us tes­ti­fi­eth

To His eter­nal ma­jes­ty;

While on my path each tiny flow­er

Proclaims His glo­ry and His pow­er.

Into Thy hand

O God Al­migh­ty

My weal and woe I will en­trust;

My need Thou seest who tak­est pity

On ev­ery worm that crawls the dust.

In plea­sure’s path or sor­row’s way

Be Thou my guide

O Lord

I pray.

And when the morn­ing star ap­pear­eth

Thy grace

Thy glo­ry we pro­claim;

When falls the dew

and ev­en­ing near­eth

O Lord

we call up­on Thy name.

Upon Thy mer­cy we rely

Father

Cre­at­or

God on high.
