The spacious firmament on high

Author: Joseph Addison (1672-1719) Appears in 812 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, with all the blue ethereal sky, and spangled heavens, a shining frame, their great Original proclaim. The unwearied sun, from day to day, does his Creator's power display, and publishes to every land the work of an almighty hand. 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. 3 What though in solemn silence all move round the dark terrestrial ball; What though no real voice nor sound amid their radiant orbs be found? In reason's ear they all rejoice, and utter forth a glorious voice, for ever singing, as they shine, 'The hand that made us is divine!'
