God, Who Stretched the Spangled Heavens
Author: Catherine Cameron Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 47 hymnals Topics: God, the Creator Lyrics: 1 God, who stretched the spangled heavens
Infinite in time and place,
Flung the suns in burning radiance
Through the silent fields of space:
We, your children in your likeness,
Share inventive pow'rs with you;
Great Creator, still creating,
Show us what we yet may do.
2 We have ventured worlds undreamed of
Since the childhood of our race;
Known the ecstasy of winging
Through untraveled realms of space;
Probed the secrets of the atom,
Yielding unimagined pow'r,
Facing us with life’s destruction
Or our most triumphant hour.
3 As each far horizon beckons,
May it challenge us anew:
Children of creative purpose,
Serving others, hon'ring you.
May our dreams prove rich with promise;
Each endeavor well begun;
Great Creator, give us guidance
Till our goals and yours are one. Used With Tune: HOLY MANNA

God's will is done.
