1. Lord, our Lord, thy glorious name All thy wondrous works proclaim;
In the heavens with radiant signs Evermore Thy glory shines.
Infant lips thou dost ordain Wrath and vengeance to restrain;
Weakest means fulfill thy will, Mighty enemies to still.
 
2. Moon and stars in shining height Nightly tell their Maker's might;
When thy wondrous heavens I scan, Then I know how weak is man.
What is man that he should be Loved and visited by Thee,
Raised to an exalted height, Crowned with honor in Thy sight?
 
3. Thou his station didst ordain Just below the angel train;
Glory thou hast o'er him shed, And with honor crowned his head.
Thou hast given him command O'er the creatures of Thy hand;
And beneath his feet hast laid All the works which Thou hast made.
