The spacious firmament on high
Appears in 790 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high,
with all the blue ethereal sky,
and spangled heav'ns, a shining frame,
their great Original proclaim.
The unweary'd sun from day to day
does his Creator's pow'r display;
and publishes to ev'ry 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 list'ning 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
amidst 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!' Used With Tune: PETERBOROUGH

O God of God! O Light of Light!
Author: John Julian Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 50 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God of God! O Light of light!
Thou Prince of Peace, Thou King of kings,
To Thee, where angels know no night,
The song of praise forever rings:
To Him who sits upon the throne,
The Lamb once slain for sinful men,
Be honor, might, all by Him won;
Glory and praise! Amen, Amen!
2 Deep in the prophets' sacred page,
Grand in the poets' winged word,
Slowly in type, from age to age,
Nations beheld their coming Lord;
Till through the deep Judean night
Rang out the song, "Good will to men!"
Hymned by the first-born sons of light,
Re-echoed now, "Good will!" Amen!
3 Nations afar, in ignorance deep;
Isles of the sea where darkness lay;
These hear Thy voice, they wake from sleep,
And throng with joy the upward way.
They cry with us, "Send forth Thy light,
O Lamb, once slain for sinful men;
Burst Satan's bonds, O God of might;
Set all men free! Amen, Amen!"
4 Sing to the Lord a glorious song,
Sing to His Name, His love forthtell;
Sing on, heaven's host, His praise prolong;
Sing, ye who now on earth do dwell:
"Worthy the Lamb for sinners slain;
From angels, praise; and thanks from men;
Worthy the Lamb, enthroned to reign,
Glory and power! Amen, Amen!"
Amen.

Great western land, whose mighty breast
O God, in Whose all-searching eye
Author: Bp. C. Wordsworth Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, in Whose all-searching eye
Thy servants stand, to ratify
The vow baptismal, by them made,
When first Thy hand was on them laid;
Bless them, O Holy Father, bless,
Who Thee, with heart and voice confess;
May they, acknowledged as Thine own,
Stand evermore before Thy throne.
2 O Christ, Who didst at Pentecost
Send down from heaven the Holy Ghost;
And at Samaria baptize
Those whom Thou didst evangelize;
And then on Thy baptized confer
The best of gifts, the Comforter,
By apostolic hands, and prayer;
Be with us now, as Thou wert there.
3 Arm these Thy soldiers, mighty Lord,
With shield of faith, and Spirit's sword;
Forth to the battle may they go,
And boldly fight against the foe,
With banner of the cross unfurled,
And by it overcome the world;
And so at last receive from Thee
The palm and crown of victory.
4 Come, ever blessèd Spirit, come,
And make Thy servant's hearts Thy home;
Thus consecrated, Lord, to Thee,
May each a living temple be.
Enrich that temple's holy shrine
With sevenfold gifts of grace divine;
With wisdom, light, and knowledge, bless,
Strength, counsel, fear, and godliness.
Amen.
