Sun, Moon and Stars, praise ye the Lord

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns #C.IX (1737) Hymnal Title: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns First Line: Regent of all the Worlds above Lyrics: 1 Regett of all the Worlds above, Thou, Sun, whose Rays adorn the Sphere And with unwearied Swiftness move, To form the Circle of the Year: 2 Praise the Creator of the Skies, Who decks thy Orb with borrow'd Rays: Or may the Sun forget to rise, When he forget his Maker's Praise. 3 Thou reigning Beauty of the Night, Fair Queen of Silence, Silver Moon, Whose paler Fires and Female Light, Are softer Rivals of the Noon; 4 Arise, and to that sovereign Power Waxing and waining Honours pay, Who bad thee rule the dusky Hours And half supply the absent Day. 5 Ye glittering Stars who gild the skies, When Darkness has her Curtain drawn, Who keep the Watch with wakeful Eyes, When Business, Cares, and Day are gone: 6 Proclaim the Glories of your Lord, Dispers'd thro' all the heav'nly Street, Whose boundless Treasures can afford, So rich a Pavement for his Feet. 7 Thou Heav'n of Heav'ns, supremely bright, Fair Palace of the Court divine, Where, with inimitable Light The Godhead condescends to shine: 8 Praise thou thy great Inhabitant, Who scatters lovely Beams of Grace On every Angel, every Saint, Nor veils the Lustre of his Face. 9 O God of Glory, God of Love, Thou art the Sun that mak'st our Days: Mid'st all thy wondrous Works above Let Earth and Dust attempt thy Praise!

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #62 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Hymns, Selected and Original Lyrics: 1 Fairest of all the lights above, Thou sun, whose beams adorn the spheres, And with unwearied swiftness move, To form the circles of our years; 2 Praise the Creator of the skies, That dress'd thine orb in golden rays: Or let the sun forget to rise, If he forget his Maker's praise! 3 Thou reigning beauty of the night, Fair queen of silence, silver moon, Whose gentle beams, and borrow'd light, Are softer rivals of the moon; 4 Arise, and to that sovereign Power Waxing and waning honours pay, Who bade thee rule the dusky hour, And half supply the absent day! 5 Ye twinkling stars that gild the skies, When darkness has its curtain drawn, That keep your watch with wakeful eyes, When business, cares, and day, are gone; 6 Proclaim the glories of your Lord, Dispers'd through all the heavenly street, Whose boundless treasures can afford, So rich a pavement for his feet! 7 O God of glory, God of love, Thou art the sun that makes our days; With all thy shining works above Let man attempt to speak thy praise!
