The spacious firmament on high

Hymnal: BW1870 #68 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame, Their great Original proclaim. 2 Th'unwearied sun, from day to day Does his Creator's power display, And publishes to every land The work of an Almighty hand. 3 Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wondrous tale, And nightly to the list'ning earth Repeats the story of her birth: 4 Whilst all the stars that round her burn, And all the planets in their turn, Confirm the tidings, as they roll And spread the truth from pole to pole. 5 What though in solemn silence all Move round this dark terrestrial ball-- What though no real voice nor sound Amidst their radiant orbs be found-- 6 In reason's ear they all rejoice, And utter forth a glorious voice, Forever singing as they shine-- The hand that made us is divine.

By order from Thy throne. 6 On Thee each moment we depend; If Thou withdraw, we die. Oh, may we ne'er that God offend, Who is forever nigh!

The Lord my pasture shall prepare

Hymnal: BW1870 #73 (1870) Lyrics: 1 The Lord my pasture shall prepare, And feed me with a shepherd’s care; His presence shall my wants supply, And guard me with a watchful eye; My noonday walks He shall attend, And all my midnight hours defend. 2 When on the sultry glebe I faint, Or on the thirsty mountain pant, To fertile vales and dewy meads My weary wand'ring steps He leads, Where peaceful rivers, soft and slow, Amid the verdant landscape flow. 3 Though in a bare and rugged way, Through devious lonely wilds I stray, Thy goodness shall my pains beguile, The barren wilderness shall smile, With sudden greens and herbage crown'd, And streams shall murmur all around. 4 Though in the paths of death I tread, With gloomy horrors overspread, My steadfast heart shall fear no ill, For Thou, O Lord, art with me still; Thy friendly crook shall give me aid, And guide me through the dreadful shade.
