O wondrous God, when I thy world consider,\n43\nWhich thou hast made by thine almighty word,\nWhen I perceive the skill that leads my pathway,\nThy faithfulness that feeds me daily Lord.\nRefrain: Then soars my soul in joyful songs of praise,\nO wondrous God, how great thou art!\nThen soars my soul in joyful songs of praise,\nO wondrous God, how great thou art!\n2. When I behold the heavens stretching o’er me,\nWhere golden ships plow through the seas of blue,\nSun, moon and stars all telling of thy glory,\nI see myself as less than dust or dew.\n3. When in the storm I hear the voice of thunder\nAnd lightning flashes swift across the sky,\nWhen cold fresh winds blow in across the water\nAnd rainbow glistens bright before my eye.\n4. When from the storm I flee to find a shelter,\nAnd see the lightning of thy wrath set free,\nYet striking not at me the fallen sinner,\nBut flung against thy Son upon a tree.\n5. When storms are past, surpassing rainbow brightness,\nThou Lord shall come to take me home with thee;\nThen I shall find that I am in thy likeness,\nOf grace o trophy for all worlds to see.
