Great God, the Heav'ns well order'd Frame

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns #C.III (1737) Hymnal Title: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns Lyrics: 1 Great God, the Heav'n's well order'd Frame Declares the Glories of thy Name: There thy rich Works of Wonder shine: A Thousand starry Beauties there, A Thousand radiant Marks appear Of boundless Power and Skill divine. 2 From Night to Day from Day to Night, The dawning and the falling Light Lectures of heavenly Wisdom read: With silent Eloquence they raise Our Thoughts to our Creator's Praise, And neither Sound nor Language need. 3 Yet their divine Instructions run Far as the Journeys of the Sun, And every Nation knows their Voice: The Sun, like some young Bridegroom drest Breaks from the Chamber of the East, Rolls round, and makes the Earth rejoice. 4 Where'er he spreads his Beams abroad He smiles, and speaks his Maker God; All Nature joins to shew thy Praise: Thus God in every Creature shines; Fair is the Book of Nature's Lines, But fairer is the Book of Grace. 5 I love the Volumes of thy Word; What Light and Joy those Leaves afford To Souls benighted and distrest; Thy Precepts guide my doubtful Way, Thy Fear forbids my Feet to stray, Thy Promise leads my Heart to rest. 8 Who knows the Errors of his Thoughts? O cleanse me from my secret Faults, And from presumptuous Sins restrain; Accept my poor Attempts of Praise, If I have read thy Book of Grace And Book of Nature not in vain.
