The Spacious Firmament

Author: J. Addison Hymnal: Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 #176 (1897) First Line: The spacious firmament on high Refrain First Line: Then sing aloud unto the Lord Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame Their great Original proclaim. Th'unwearied sun, from day to day, Does his Creator's powers display, And publishes to every land The work of an Almighty Hand. Refrain: Then sing aloud unto the Lord, We'll cheerfully sing, yes, joyously sing; We'll always trust his holy word, And love and praise our mighty King. 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail The moon takes up the wondrous tale, And nightly to the listening earth Repeats the story of her birth; While all the stars that round her burn And all the planets in their turn, Confirm the tidings as they roll, And spread the truth from pole to pole. [Refrain] 3 What tho’ in solemn silence all Move round the dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound Amid the radiant orbs be found? In reason's ear they all rejoice, And utter forth a glorious voice, Forever singing as they shine, "The hand that made us is divine." [Refrain] Tune Title: [The spacious firmament on high]
