Prayers of Kierkegaard: III. —
Great are you, o God
Great are you, o God!
Although we know you only as an obscure saying
And as in a mirror, a mirror, a mirror
Yet in wonder we worship your greatness
We worship your greatness
How much more, much more, we shall praise it at sometime
We shall praise it when we come to know it more fully!
When under the arch of heaven I stand
Surrounded by the wonders of creation
I rapturously and adoringly
Adoringly, praise your greatness
Praise your greatness
You who lightly hold the stars in the infinite
And concern yourself fatherly
Fatherly, fatherly, with the sparrow
You who concern yourself fatherly with the sparrow
Concern yourself, fatherly with the sparrow
Concern yourself, fatherly with the sparrow
Great are you, o God!
Although we know you only as an obscure saying
And as in a mirror, a mirror, a mirror
Yet in wonder we worship your greatness
We worship your greatness
How much more, much more, we shall praise it at sometime
We shall praise it when we come to know it more fully!
When under the arch of heaven I stand
Surrounded by the wonders of creation
I rapturously and adoringly
Adoringly, praise your greatness
Praise your greatness
You who lightly hold the stars in the infinite
And concern yourself fatherly
Fatherly, fatherly, with the sparrow
You who concern yourself fatherly with the sparrow
Concern yourself, fatherly with the sparrow
Concern yourself, fatherly with the sparrow
