Famous quotes containing the word hine:

    O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
    consider all the works thy hand hath made,
    I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
    thy pow’r thro’out the universe displayed.
    Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to thee,
    How great thou art!
    —Stuart K. Hine (b. 1899)
