<p>The heavens declare Thy glory,<br>
|
|
The firmament Thy power;<br>
|
|
Day unto day the story<br>
|
|
Repeats from hour to hour;<br>
|
|
Night unto night replying,<br>
|
|
Proclaims in every land,<br>
|
|
O Lord, with voice undying,<br>
|
|
The wonders of Thy hand.</p>
|
|
<p>The sun with royal splendor<br>
|
|
Goes forth to chant Thy praise;<br>
|
|
And moonbeams soft and tender<br>
|
|
Their gentler anthem raise;<br>
|
|
O’er every tribe and nation<br>
|
|
That music strange is poured,<br>
|
|
The song of all creation,<br>
|
|
To Thee, creation’s Lord.</p>
|
|
<p>How perfect, just, and holy<br>
|
|
The precepts Thou hast given;<br>
|
|
Still making wise the lowly,<br>
|
|
They lift the thoughts to heaven;<br>
|
|
How pure, how soul restoring<br>
|
|
Thy Gospel’s heavenly ray,<br>
|
|
A brighter radiance pouring<br>
|
|
Than noon of brightest day.</p>
|
|
<p>All heaven on high rejoices<br>
|
|
To do its Maker’s will;<br>
|
|
The stars with solemn voices<br>
|
|
Resound Thy praises still;<br>
|
|
So let my whole behavior,<br>
|
|
Thoughts, words, and actions be,<br>
|
|
O Lord, my Strength, my Savior,<br>
|
|
One ceaseless song to Thee.</p>
