Lyics

THE heavens declare thy glory, Lord,

In every star thy wisdom shines;

But when our eyes behold thy word,

We read thy name in fairer lines.



Great Sun of righteousness, arise,

O bless the world with heavenly light;

Thy gospel makes the sinful wise;

Thy laws are pure--thy judgments right.
