Maker of earth and sky;
Your hands have set the heavens with stars;
Your fingers spread the mountains and plains.
You merely spoke and waters were formed;
Deep seas obey your voice.

Though you transcend the stars.
Come close to us and stay by our side:
With you are found the true gifts that last.
Bless us with life that never shall end,
Eternal life with you.

Author: Matthew Bridges, 1800-1894; Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 798 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns,
The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark! how the heav'nly anthem drowns
All music but its own.
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of him who set us free,
And hail him as your heav'nly King
Through all eternity.
2 Crown him the Lord of life,
Who triumphed o'er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife
For those he came to save.
His glories now we sing,
Who died and rose on high,
Who died, eternal life to bring,
And lives that death may die.
3 Crown him the Lord of love,
Behold his hands and side,
Rich wounds yet visible above
In beauty glorified.
No angel in the sky
Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bends his burning eye
At mysteries so bright.
4 Crown him the Lord of peace,
Whose power a scepter sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise.
His reign shall know no end,
And round his pierced feet
Fair flow'rs of Paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
5 Crown him the Lord of years,
The risen Lord sublime,
Creator of the rolling spheres,
The Master of all time.
All hail, Redeemer, hail!
For you have died for me;
Your praise and glory shall not fail
Throughout eternity. Topics: Ascension; Christ the King; Discipleship; Easter Season; Eternal Life; Funeral; Gathering; Going Forth; Lamb; Life; Majesty and Power; Palm Sunday; Peace; Praise; Second Coming; Song; Time Scripture: Psalm 46:9 Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

And writes in fire across the skies

To make the simple wise,
More sweet than honey to the taste,
More rich than any prize,
A law of love within our hearts,
A light before our eyes.

Direct it all my days,
The meditations of my heart
Be innocence and praise,
My Rock, and my redeeming Lord,
In all my words and ways. Topics: Commandments; Confidence; Creation; Creation; Faith; God the Father (Creator); Guidance; Humility; Law; Life; Light; Love for Others; Majesty and Power; Morning; Petition; Praise; Providence; Teaching; Time; Trust Scripture: Psalm 19 Used With Tune: ALDINE
