The Spacious Firmament on High

Author: Joseph Addison Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 782 hymnals Matching Instances: 186 Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, with all the blue ethereal sky, and spangled heav'ns, a shining frame, their great Original proclaim. Th'unwearied sun, from day to day does his Creator's power display, and publishes to ev'ry land the work of an almighty hand. 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail, the moon takes up the wondrous tale, and nightly to the list'ning earth repeats the story of her birth; whilst all the stars that round her burn, and all the planets in their turn, confirm the tidings as they roll, and spread the truth from pole to pole. 3 What though in solemn silence all move round this dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound amidst their radiant orbs be found? In reason's ear they all rejoice, and utter forth a glorious voice; forever singing, as they shine, "The hand that made us is divine."

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 9 Lyrics: 1 Exalt the LORD, his praise proclaim; all you his servants, praise his name, who in the LORD's house ever stand and humbly serve at his command. The LORD is good, his praise proclaim; since it is pleasant, praise his name. His people for his own he takes and his own special treasure makes. 2 I know the LORD is high in state; above all gods our Lord is great. The LORD performs what he decrees, in heaven and earth, in depths and seas. He makes the vapors to ascend in clouds from earth's remotest end; the lightnings flash at his command; he holds the tempest in his hand. 3 Exalt the LORD, his praise proclaim; all you his servants, praise his name, who in the LORD's house ever stand and humbly serve at his command. Forever praise and bless his name, and in the church his praise proclaim. In Zion is his dwelling place; O praise the LORD, show forth his grace.

God's Glory Fills the Heavens

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 8 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 First Line: God's glory fills the heavens with hymns Lyrics: 1 God’s glory fills the heavens with hymns; the domed sky bears the Maker’s mark. New praises sound from day to day and echo through the knowing dark. Without a word their songs roll on; into all lands their voices run. And with a champion’s strength and grace from farthest heaven comes forth the sun. 2 God’s perfect law revives the soul; its precepts make the simple wise. Its just commands rejoice the heart; its truth gives light unto the eyes. Forever shall this law endure: unblemished, righteous, true, complete. No gold we ever found so fine, no honey in the comb more sweet. 3 God’s servant may I ever be: this world my joy, that word my guide. O cleanse me, LORD, from secret sin; deliver me from selfish pride. Accept my thoughts and words and deeds; let them find favor in your sight. For you alone can make me whole, O LORD, my refuge and my might.
