Nature with open volume stands

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #343 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Romans 15:18-21 Lyrics: 1 Nature with open volume stands to spread her maker's praise abroad; and every labour of his hands shows something worthy of a God. 2 But in the grace that rescued us, his brightest form of glory shines; here, on the cross, 'tis fairest drawn in precious blood, and crimson lines. 3 Here his whole name appears complete: nor wit can guess, nor reason prove, which of the letters best is writ, the power, the wisdom, or the love. 4 O the sweet wonders of that cross where God the Saviour loved, and died! Her noblest life my spirit draws from his dear wounds, and bleeding side. 5 I would for ever speak his name in sounds to mortal ears unknown, with angels join to praise the Lamb, and worship at his Father's throne.
