Great God, at thy command
Seasons in order rise:
Thy power and love in concert reign
Through earth, and seas, and skies.
How balmy is the air,
How warm the solar beams!
And so refresh the ground, the rains
Descend in gentle streams.
With grateful praise we own
Thy providential hand,
While grass for kine, and herb and corn
For men, enrich the land.
But greater still the gift
Of thine incarnate Son:
By him forgiveness, peace, and joy,
Through endless ages run.
