Lord, Thy glory fills the heaven, Earth is with its fullness stored; Unto Thee be glory given, Holy, holy, holy Lord!

Raised between the Earth and Heaven

Author: Wharton Buchanan Smith Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Raised between the earth and heaven, Now our bells are set on high, In the Name of Him Who giveth Skill, and strength, and industry. For His praise we meekly place it As a gift beneath His throne; All their sweet and noblest music Shall resound for Him alone. 2 Faithful men afar shall listen, 'Mid their daily toil or rest, While the melody shall bid them Love the Church where all are blest. They who languish, sick and lonely, Shall be minded, as they sigh, Of the Church's one communion, God's true home and family. 3 When the spirits of the faithful Pass away to light and peace; Solemn tones shall then forewarn us, Soon our life and work must cease. May these loud reverberations, Pealing forth in grand accord, Lift our hearts through joy and sorrow To Thy throne, most gracious Lord. Amen.

Raise the Psalm: Let Earth Adoring

Author: Edward Churton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Raise the psalm: let earth adoring, Through each kindred, tribe, and tongue, To her God His praise restoring, Raise the new accordant song. Bless His name, each farthest nation; Sing His praise, His truth display: Tell anew His high salvation, With each new return of day. 2. Tell it out beneath the heaven To each kindred, tribe and tongue, Tell it out from morn till even In your unexhausted song: Tell that God forever reigneth, He, who set the world so fast, He, who still its state sustaineth Till the day of doom to last. 3. Tell them that the day is coming When that righteous doom shall be: Then shall Heav’n new joys illumine, Gladness shine o’er earth and sea. Yea, the far resounding ocean Shall its thousand voices raise, All its waves in glad commotion Chant the fullness of His praise. 4. And earth’s fields, with herbs and flowers, Shall put on their choice array, And in all their leafy bowers Shall the woods keep holy day: When the Judge, to earth descending, Righteous judgment shall ordain, Fraud and wrong shall then have ending, Truth, immortal truth, shall reign.
