lyrics

The heavens declare Thy glory, The firmament Thy power;
Day unto day the story Repeats from hour to hour;
Night unto night replying, Proclaims in every land,
O Lord, with voice undying, The wonders of Thy hand.

The sun with royal splendor Goes forth to chant Thy praise;
And moonbeams soft and tender Their gentler anthem raise;
O’er every tribe and nation That music strange is poured,
The song of all creation, To Thee, creation’s Lord.

How perfect, just, and holy The precepts Thou hast given;
Still making wise the lowly, They lift the thoughts to heaven;
How pure, how soul restoring Thy Gospel’s heavenly ray,
A brighter radiance pouring Than noon of brightest day.

All heaven on high rejoices To do its Maker’s will;
The stars with solemn voices Resound Thy praises still;
So let my whole behavior, Thoughts, words, and actions be,
O Lord, my Strength, my Savior, One ceaseless song to Thee.
