william billings - creation lyrics

Loading...

let others boast how strong they be
nor death nor danger fear;
but we’ll confess, o lord, to thee
what feeble things we are

fresh as the grass our bodies stand
and flourish bright and g+y;
a blasting wind sweeps o’er the land
and fades the grass away

our life contains a thousand springs
and dies if one be gone;
strange, that a harp of thousand strings
should keep in tune so long!
but ’tis our god supports our frame
the god that built us first:
salvation to th’ almighty name
that reared us from the dust

he spoke, and straight our hearts and brains
in all their motions rose;
“let blood,” said he, “flow round the veins,”
and round the vеins it flows

while we have brеath, or use our tongues
our maker we’ll adore;
his spirit moves our heaving lungs
or they would breathe no more
