“The Heavens Declare Thy Glory, Lord” Watts/Mason

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.

The rolling sun, the changing light, and night and day, Thy power confess;
But the blest volume Thou hast writ reveals Thy justice and Thy grace.

Sun, moon, and stars convey Thy praise round the whole earth and never stand;
So when Thy truth began its race, it touched and glanced on every land.

Nor shall Thy spreading gospel rest till through the world Thy truth has run;
Till Christ has all the nations blest that see the light, or feel the sun.
