Scripture: Genesis 1:1-2

Produced by thy creating word, The world from nothing came. 2 Thy voice sent forth the high command, 'Twas instantly obeyed; And through thy goodness all things stand, Which by thy power were made. 3 Lord! for thy glory shine the whole; They all reflect thy light: For this in course the planets roll, And day succeeds the night. 4 For this the sun disperses heat, And beams of cheering day; And distant stars, in order set, By night thy power display. 5 For this the earth its produce yields, For this the waters flow; And blooming plants adorn the fields, And trees aspiring grow. 6 Inspired with praise, our minds pursue This wise and noble end-- That all we think, and all we do, Shall to thine honor tend.
