Behold The Lofty Sky
{ Behold The Lofty Sky ST. THOMAS-Composer Unknown Behold! The Lofty Sky } Behold! the lofty sky Declares its maker, God; And all his starry works, on high, Proclaim his power abroad. The darkness and the light Still keep their course the same; While night to day, and day to night, Divinely teach his name. In every different land, Their general voice is known; They show the wonders of his hand, And orders of his throne. Ye Christian lands! rejoice; Here he reveals his word; We are not left to nature's voice, To bid us know the Lord. His laws are just and pure His truth without deceit; His promises for ever sure, And his rewards are great. While of thy works I sing, Thy glory to proclaim, Accept the praise, my God, my King! In my Redeemer's name. |
