Know the minutest grain of sand,
The smallest drop of sparkling dew,
Bear impress of the Almighty hand
As much as suns and systems do;
For all proclaim and all record
The all-potent, omnipresent Lord.
The slightest movement of the breeze
Which bends the flowers or shakes the trees,
Or ripples river, lake, or stream,
Would man but listen-speaks of Him,
As does the loud tornado, when
It thunders down the echoing glen.
