Lyrics

Our Fa­ther’s won­drous works we see
In the earth and sea and sky;
He rules o’er all in ma­jes­ty,
From His roy­al throne on high.

Refrain

What a migh­ty God we serve!
What a migh­ty God we serve!
Reigning now above on His throne of love,
What a migh­ty God we serve!

The rag­ing winds and waves are calm,
When He says to them, Be still;
The hea­vens praise Him in a psalm,
And the an­gels do His will.

Refrain

He mak­eth worlds by His com­mand,
Weighs the mount­ains great and high;
Creates the wa­ters in His hand,
Spans the lof­ty, star­lit sky.

Refrain

Our God, to save from sin’s con­trol,
Gave His Son a sac­ri­fice;
His grace, abound­ing in the soul,
Makes the earth a pa­ra­dise.
