Divine Knowledge from Creation

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: Creation Proves the being and perfections of God; Creation Proves the being and perfections of God First Line: The book of nature open lies Lyrics: 1 The book of nature open lies, With much instruction stor'd; But till the LORD anoints our eyes, We cannot read a word. 2 The knowledge of the saints excels The wisdom of the schools; To them his secrets God reveals, Tho' men account them fools. 3 To them the sun and stars on high, The flow'rs that paint the field, And all the artless birds that fly, Divine instruction yield. 4 The creatures on their senses press, As witnesses to prove Their Saviour's pow'r and faithfulness, His providence and love. 5 Thus may we study nature's book, To make us wise indeed! And pity those who only look At what they cannot read.
