<div class="lyrics">
<p>Sing we the glory of our God,<br>
Who on the second day<br>
Spread out the firmament above,<br>
His wonders to display.</p>
<p>There, floating in the blue expanse<br>
The watery clouds we view,<br>
Whence fruitful showers at His command<br>
The thirsty soil bedew.</p>
<p>How fair an image of the grace<br>
Which Thou, Lord, dost impart,<br>
Like morning dew or gentle rain,<br>
To gladden every heart.</p>
<p>And when the faithful soul drinks in<br>
Those showers with blessings rife,<br>
A well of water springeth up<br>
To everlasting life.</p>
<p>O happy saints, on whom are poured,<br>
Such treasures from above!<br>
Lord, may they ne&#8217;er forgetful be,<br>
But render love for love.</p>
<p>To God, Who freely loved us first,<br>
All might, all glory be;<br>
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,<br>
Through all eternity.</p>
