Awake, My Tongue, Thy Tribute Bring

Awake, my tongue, thy tribute bring

To Him Who gave Thee power to sing;

Praise Him Who is all praise above,

The source of wisdom and of love.

How vast His knowledge, how profound!

A deep where all our thoughts are drowned;

The stars He numbers, and their names

He gives to all those heavenly flames.

Through each bright world above, behold

Ten thousand thousand charms unfold;

Earth, air, and mighty seas combine

To speak His wisdom all divine.

But in redemption, O what grace!

Its wonders, O what thought can trace!

Here, wisdom shines forever bright;

Praise Him, my soul, with sweet delight.
