The Hymnal and Order of Service ‎#330

330. Heaven and Earth, and Sea and Air

1 Heaven and earth, and sea and air,
All their Maker's praise declare;
Wake, my soul, awake and sing,
Now thy grateful praises bring.

2 See the glorious orb of day
Breaking thro' the clouds his way;
Moon and stars with silv'ry light
Praise Him thro' the silent night.

3 See how He hath everywhere
Made this earth so rich and fair;
Hill and vale and fruitful land,
All things living show His hand.

4 Lord, great wonders workest Thou!
To Thy sway all creatures bow,
Write Thou deeply in my heart
What I am, and what Thou art.

Amen.
