Christian Worship Day Unto Day Uttereth Speech.
The heavens declare his glory,
Their Maker’s skill the skies:
Each day repeats the story,
And night to night replies.
Their silent proclamation
Throughout the earth is heard;
The record of creation,
The page of nature’s word.
There, from his bright pavilion,
Like eastern bridegroom clad,
Hailed by earth’s thousand million,
The sun sets forth; right glad,
His glorious race commencing,
The mighty giant seems;
Through the vast round dispensing
His all-pervading beams.
So pure, so soul-restoring
Is truth’s diviner ray;
A brighter radiance pouring
Than all the pomp of day:
The wanderer surely guiding,
It makes the simple wise;
And evermore abiding,
Unfailing joy supplies.
