Author: J. Neander Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #63 (1913) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Heaven and earth, and sea and air,
Still their Maker's praise declare;
Thou, my soul, as loudly sing,
To thy God thy praises bring.
2 See, the sun his power awakes,
As through the clouds his glory breaks;
See the moon and stars of light,
Praising God in stillest night.
3 See how God this rolling globe
Swathes with beauty as a robe;
Forests, fields, and living things,
East its Master's glory sings.
4 Through the air Thy praises meet,
Birds are singing clear and sweet;
Fire, and storm, and wind, Thy will
As Thy ministers fulfill.
5 The ocean waves Thy glory tell,
At Thy touch they sing and swell;
From the well-spring to the sea,
Rivers murmur, Lord, of Thee.
6 O my God, what wonders lie
Hid in Thine infinity!
Stamp upon my inmost heart
What I am, and what Thou art. Topics: His Majesty and Glory; God His Majesty and Glory; Praise and Prayer Tune Title: [Heaven and earth, and sea and air]
