How manifold are your deeds,
The wisdom that made them all;
All creatures You fill their needs,
Mystifies me with such awe.
Here is the sea, great and wide,
Living things both great and small;
Creatures that flow with the tide,
Most swimming and others crawl.
Ships and Leviathan go,
Which You formed to play in it;
Where the currents and waves flow,
As the weather would permit.
All of these will look to You,
Praising You for the season;
In giving food when it’s due,
For a life as their reason.
When You give it unto them,
As You open up your hand;
Filled with good things as Your gem,
Abiding by Your command.
When You are hiding Your face,
They will become so dismayed;
Their breath taken in disgrace,
They die and become decayed.
When You send forth Your Spirit,
You form the face of the earth;
And created in merit,
Have renewed with a new birth.
