Joseph Friedlander, comp. The Standard Book of Jewish Verse. 1917.

By Samuel Ben Kalonymus (Trans. Alice Lucas)

Hymn of Unity

WHO shall narrate Thy wonders wrought of old?

The utterance of the lips Thou didst create,

But all Thy majesty and power untold,

Who shall narrate?

Thy ways on earth in song we celebrate,

Though none may Thy similitude behold,

Yet know we by Thy works that Thou art great.

Thousands of angels, by Thy word controll’d

To do thy bidding, Thy commands await:

Yet of them all, Thy wonders manifold

Who shall narrate?
