Nature with Open Volume Stands

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 144 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 19:4 Lyrics: 1 Nature with open volume stands to spread her Maker's praise abroad; and every labor of his hands shows something worthy of a God. 2 But in the grace that saved the world his brightest form of glory shines; see on the cross the tale unfold, in precious blood, and crimson lines. 3 Here his whole name appears complete, nor wit can guess, nor reason prove, which of the letters best is writ, the power, the wisdom, or the love. 4 O the sweet wonders of that cross where Christ my Savior loved and died! Her noblest life my spirit draws from his dear wounds and bleeding side. 5 I would forever speak his name in sounds to mortal ears unknown, with angels join to praise the Lamb, and worship at his Father's throne.
