Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #139 (1888) Hymnal Title: Laudes Domini First Line: The heavens declare thy glory, Lord! Lyrics: 1 The heavens 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 power confess;
But the blest volume thou hast writ
Reveals thy justice and thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey thy praise
Round the whole earth, and never stand;
So, when thy truth began its race,
It touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall thy spreading gospel rest,
Till through the world thy truth has run,
Till Christ has all the nations blessed,
That see the light, or feel the sun. Topics: Bible; The Scriptures Scripture: Psalm 19:1 Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE
