Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #221 (1974) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: The heav'ns declare Thy glory, Lord Lyrics: 1 The heav'ns declare Thy glory, Lord
In every star Thy wisdom shines;
But when our eyes behold Thy Word,
We read Thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
And nights and days, Thy pow'r confess
But the blest volume Thou hast writ,
Reveals Thy justice and your grace
3 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise.
Bless the dark world with heav'nly light;
Thy gospel makes the simple wise,
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.
4 Thy noblest wonders here we view
In souls renewed, and sins forgiv'n;
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew,
And make Thy Word my guide to heav'n.
Amen. Topics: Christ Name(s) of; God the Father in Nature; Scriptures Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER NEW
