Thou who art enthroned above! <br />Thou by whom we live and move! <br />Thee we bless; thy praise be sung, <br />While an ear can hear a tongue. <br /> <br />O how sweet, how excellent <br />'Tis with tongue and heart's consent,- <br />Thankful hearts and joyful tongues,- <br />To renown thy name in songs! <br /> <br />When the morning paints the skies, <br />When the sparkling stars arise, <br />Thy high favours to rehearse, <br />Thy firm faith, in grateful verse. <br /> <br />Decks the spring with flowers the field? <br />Harvest rich doth autumn yield? <br />Giver of all good below! <br />Lord! from Thee these blessings flow. <br /> <br />Who thy wonders can express? <br />All thy thoughts are fathomless: <br />Lord, Thou art most great, most high! <br />God from all eternity!<br /><br />George Sandys<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/thou-who-art-enthroned-above/
