Before thy feet I fall

From Oremus Hymnal

Before thy feet I fall,
Lord, who made high my fate;
for in the mighty small
thou show'st the mighty great.

Lo, while we ask the stars
to learn the will of God,
his answer unawares
strikes sudden from the sod.

He is the Lord of light;
he is the thing that is;
he sends the seeing sight;
and the right mind is his.

Henceforth I will resound
but praises unto thee;
though I was beat and bound,
thou gav'st me victory.
