Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #51 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 19 First Line: The heav'ns declare Thy glory, Lord Lyrics: 1 The heav'ns declare Thy glory, Lord,
in ev'ry 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 pow'r 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 ev'ry land.
4 Nor shall Thy spreading gospel rest
till through the world Thy truth has run,
till Christ has all the nations blest
that see the light, or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise,
bless the dark world with heav'nly light;
Thy gospel makes the simple wise;
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.
6 Thy noblest wonders here we view
in souls renewed and sins forgiv'n;
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew,
and make Thy Word my guide to heav'n. Topics: Revelation and Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE
