For the Music of Creation
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Job 38:7 Lyrics: 1 For the music of creation,
for the song your Spirit sings,
for your sound’s divine expression,
burst of joy in living things:
God, our God, the world’s composer,
hear us, echoes of your voice;
music is your art, your glory,
let the human heart rejoice!
2 Psalms and symphonies exalt you,
drum and trumpet, string and reed,
simple melodies acclaim you,
tunes that rise from deepest need,
hymns of longing and belonging,
carols from a cheerful throat,
lilt of lullaby and love song
catching heaven in a note.
3 All the voices of the ages
in transcendent chorus meet,
worship lifting up the senses,
hands that praise, and dancing feet;
over discord and division
music speaks your joy and peace,
harmony of earth and heaven,
song of God that cannot cease!
Used With Tune: RUSTINGTON

Who formed the worlds on high,
Who taught the planets where to trace
Their orbits in the sky.

O'er land and ocean fly,
And to the wondering world declare
The message from on high.

Of our eternal God,
Whose kingdom, in these latter days,
Is spreading far abroad.

Who hath a feast prepared,
The glorious gospel standard raised,
The ancient faith restored.

Let wind and air and cloud and calm

jocund is he, robust and bright,

governed by thee she hath upraised
what for our life is needful.
Sustained by thee, through every hour,
she bringeth forth fruit, herb, and flower.

in free forgivingness their love,
nor shrink from tribulation.
Happy, who peaceably endure;
with thee, Lord, their reward is sure.
7 For death our sister, praised be,
from whom no one alive can free.
Woe to the unprepared!
But blest be they who do thy will
and follow thy commandments still.
8 Most high, omnipotent, good Lord,
to thee be ceaseless praise outpoured,
and blessing without measure.
Let creatures all give thanks to thee,
and serve in great humility. Topics: Creation; Creation; Gathering of the Community; Praise of God; Song of creation Used With Tune: ASSISI
