"O give thanks unto the Lord; for He is good: for His mercy endureth forever.... to Him Who alone doeth great wonders.... to Him that by wisdom made the heavens.... to Him that stretched out the earth above the waters.... Who remembered us in our low estate" (Psalm 136:1,4-6,23).
Oh give thanks to our Creator
Who by wisdom made the skies
And circumscribed earth's equator
Where the ocean round it lies.
How wondrous His omnipotence!
How remarkable His love,
That He would come to our defense,
From His majesty above!
And how shall we articulate
The wonder of His deeds?
Remembering our low estate,
He met our deepest needs.
How infinite the distance spanned
From heaven's highest place:
Our Savior came that He might stand
In every sinner's place!
Everywhere our eyes can look
His majesty we see.
Still more recorded in His Book:
What love for you and me!
How remarkably sublime
The love of Jesus is,
That He remembered us in time
And died to call us His!
