Hi!
I recently came across a beautiful prayer, but cannot find a Hebrew version or origin of this prayer. Can anyone please point me to any information about the origin of this prayer and a Hebrew or Aramaic (original?) version?
Here is the prayer (perhaps not the best translation):
I especially love the last two lines!
Thank you!

How wonderful, O Lord, are the works of your hands!
The heavens declare Your glory,
the arch of the sky displays Your handiwork
In Your love You have given us the power
to behold the beauty of Your world
robed in all its splendor.
The sun and the stars, the valleys and the hills,
the rivers and the lakes all disclose Your presence.
The roaring breakers of the sea tell of Your awesome might,
the beast of the field and the birds of the air
bespeak Your wondrous will.
In Your goodness You have made us able to hear
the music of the world.
The voices of the loved ones
reveal to us that You are in our midst.
A divine voice sings through all creation.
I especially love the last two lines!
Thank you!
