Lord, when my raptured thought surveys

1

Lord, when my raptured thought surveysCreation's beauties o'er,All nature joins to teach thy praiseAnd bid my soul adore.

2

Where'er I turn my gazing eyes,Thy radiant footsteps shine;Ten thousand pleasing wonders rise,And speak their source divine.

3

On me thy providence has shoneWith gentle, smiling rays;O let my lips and life make knownThy goodness and thy praise!
