Analysis of Wonderful God
What does man truly know
About the stars so vast?
About time which goes so fast?
What does the ocean stow
Beneath the surface's flow?
Where were the stars precast?
Whom holds wisdom unsurpassed?
Who sees the earths depths below?
God Made, Knows and sees
All these amazing wonders.
To Him we bow our knees
And He lifts all our disease.
Our steps He graciously orders,
Our lives He faithfully oversees.
