the firmament your power;
day unto day the story
repeats from hour to hour.
Night unto night replying,
proclaims in every land,
O LORD, with voice undying,
the wonders of your hand.
2 The sun with royal splendor
goes forth to chant your praise,
and moonbeams soft and tender
their gentler anthem raise.
O'er every tribe and nation
the music is outpoured,
the song of all creation
to you, creation's Lord.
3 All heaven on high rejoices
to do its Maker's will;
the stars with solemn voices
resound your praises still.
So let my whole behavior,
each thought, each deed I do,
be, LORD, my strength, my Savior,
a ceaseless song to you. Scripture: Psalm 19 Used With Tune: FAITHFUL

The Ten Commandments
God the LORD, the King Almighty
Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Christian Worship #50A (2021) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Ten Commandments 3rd Commandment (Remember the Sabbath); Ten Commandments 6th Commandment (You shall not commit adultery); Ten Commandments 7th Commandment (You shall not steal); Ten Commandments 8th Commandment (You shall not give false witness) Lyrics: 1 God the Lord, the King Almighty,
calls the earth from east to west:
shining out from Zion's splendor,
city loveliest and best,
comes our God! He breaks the silence,
robed in burning majesty:
"Gather all my cov'nant people,
bound by sacrifice to me."
2 "Hear me testify against you:
listen, Israel, as I speak.
I do not require your off'rings,
sacrifice I do not seek.
Mountain birds and meadow creatures,
cattle on a thousand hills,
all the beasts are my possession,
moving as their maker wills."
3 God who owns the whole creation
needs no gift, no food, no house;
bring to him your heart's thanksgiving,
God Most High will hear your vows.
Trust him in the day of trouble,
call to him who will redeem;
he will be your strong deliv'rer,
his renown your daily theme.
4 Lies increase and evil prospers;
God is silent while men say,
"He has gone, let us forget him,"
thinking he is false as they.
But his word will judge or save us:
let us come before his throne,
giving thanks, receiving mercy,
God's salvation now made known. Scripture: Psalm 50 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. HILARY
