Whose spirit leads believing souls;

2Throughout the deep thy footsteps shine;

We own thy way is in the sea,

O'erawed by majesty divine,

And lost in thine immensity!

3Infinite God! thy greatness spanned

These heavens, and meted out the skies;

Lo' in the hollow of thy hand

The measured waters sink and rise.

4Thee to perfection who can tell?
