Thy wisdom is made manifest
In all things formed by Thy behest,
All with Thy seal's clear mark imprest.
Before the pillars of the sky
Were raised, before the mountains high
Were wrought, ere hills and dales were known,
Thou in Thy majesty alone
Didst sit, O God! upon Thy throne!
Hearts, seeking Thee, from search refrain,
And weary tongues their praise restrain.
