1. I sing the mighty 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.
2. 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 your wonders are displayed where-e'er I turn my eye,
if I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the Sky!
3. There's not a plant or flower below but makes your glories known;
and clouds arise and tempests blow by order from your throne;
while all that borrows life from you is ever in your care,
and everywhere that I may be, you, God, are present there.
Deus in adjutórium meum inténde: Dómine ad adjuvándum me festína: confundántur et revereántur inimíci mei, qui quaerunt ánimam meam. Ps. Avertántur retrórsum et erubéscant,
Sanctificávit Móyses altáre Dómino, ófferens super illud holocáusta, et ímmolans víctimas: fecit sacrifícium vespertínum in odórem suavitátis Dómino Deo, in conspéctu filiórum Israel.
Adoro te devote, latens Deitas, Quae sub his figuris vere latitas: Tibi se cor meum totum subjicit, Quia te contemplans totum deficit.
O memoriale mortis Dómini, Panis vivus vitam praestans hómini, Praesta meæ menti de te vivere, Et te illi semper dulce sapere.
Jesu, quem velatum nunc adspicio, Oro fiat illud quod tam sitio: Ut te revelata cernens facie, Visu sim beatus tuæ gloriæ. Amen.
