Tune: Repton
('Dear Lord and Father of mankind')
Psalm 19 v.1-6
**********
The heavens declare the glory
Of God, and the skies, see
Show His handiwork, day to day
And night to night, they show His way
Speech, knowledge they display
Speech, knowledge they display
For He does speak through His works great
They not of luck or fate
And we may have knowledge as we
His wonders in creation see
The Lord God Almighty
The Lord God Almighty
There is no speech or language where
They do not in this share
But all do see, He has measured
Out all the world, we are assured
His wondrous grace outpoured
His wondrous grace outpoured
In the skies he has set the sun
It reaches to each one
'Tis as a bridegroom, who ready
Comes to marriage gloriously
And as strong man sure be
And as strong man sure be
Nothing is hid from the sun's heat
Each day we do it greet
Sometimes hidden behind the clouds
Which too God's glory do enshroud
His blessings sure endowed
His blessings sure endowed

Thanks N. I will now proceed to sing every one of the 'sung' poems. Agghh! It was Goldfinch's and my anniversaries of starting here, yesterday 7 years ago.
I like the way this one begins.
"The heavens declare the glory" Indeed it does. Well I have read this Sunday post and consider it my Sunday service. Well done Orchi.
