Hymn 84, “Creation”......................Haydn {Addison)

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.

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.

What though in solemn silence all Move round the dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound Amid the radiant orbs be found?

In reason’s ear they all rejoice.

And utter forth a glorious voice;

Forever singing as they shine,

“The hand that made us is divine.”

The Lord’s Prayer

Responsive Reading

The earth is the Lord’s and the fulness thereof;

The world, and they that dwell therein.

The heavens declare the glory of God;

And the firmament shotveth his handiwork.

When I consider the heavens, the work of thy fingers,

The moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

IT hat is man that thou art mindful of him?

And the son of man, that thou visitest him?

For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels,

And hast crowned him with glory and honor.

Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands;

Thou hast put all things under his feet.

All sheep and oxen, Yea, and the beasts of the field.

The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea,

Whatsoever passeth through the paths of the sea.

O Lord, our Lord,

How excellent is thy name in all the earth.

Let the people praise thee, 0 God;

Let all the people praise thee.

Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy;

For thou shalt judge the people righteously,

And govern the nations upon earth.

Let the people praise thee, 0 God;

Let all the people praise thee.

Then shall the earth yield her increase;

And God, even our own God, shall bless us.

The grass withereth and the flower thereof falleth away;

But the word of the Lord endureth forever.

All : Let thy work appear unto thy servants,

And thy glory unto their children.

And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us;

And establish thou the work of our hands;

Yea, the work of our hands, establish thou it.

...................................Pierpoint YToplady)

For the beauty of the earth,

For the beauty of the skies,

For the love which from our birth Over and around us lies,

Christ, our God, to Thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise.

For the wonder of the hour Of the day and of the night,

Hill and vale, and tree and flower,

Sun and moon, and stars of light,

Christ, our God, to Thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise.

For the joy of human love,

Brother, sister, parent, child,

Friends on earth, and friends above,

For all gentle thoughts and mild:

Christ, our God, to Thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise.

Hymn, “America the Beautiful”.................Bates

O beautiful for spacious skies.

For amber waves of grain;

For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain!

America! America!

God shed His grace on thee.

And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!

0 beautiful for pilgrim feet,

Whose stern impassioned stress

A thoroughfare for freedom beat Across the wilderness!

America! America!

God mend thine ev’ry flaw,

Confirm thy soul in self-control,

Thy liberty in law!

O beautiful for heroes proved In liberating strife,

Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life!

America! America!

May God thy gold refine

Till all success be nobleness And ev’ry gain divine!

0 beautiful for patriot dream That sees beyond the years

Thine alabaster cities gleam Undimmed by human tears!

America! America!

God shed His grace on thee,

And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea!
