Starry Story

"The heavens declare the glory of God.... Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.... He telleth the number of the stars; He calleth them all by their names.... He sendeth forth His commandment upon earth: His word runneth very swiftly.... He sendeth out His word.... He showeth His word" (Psalm 19:1-4, 147:4-19).

The heavens are telling their great starry story,
Exalting our Savior and Lord.
Through all of the earth they're declaring His glory;
Their message should not be ignored!

The wonderful Gospel of God that is shown
And sent forth through all of the earth
Is found in the stars by their names He made known,
Declaring His word and His worth.

The stars have their names which the Lord has assigned;
His glory He thereby declares.
How gracious is God who reveals His mind
And shows us how greatly He cares.

O Lord, we rejoice in the glory proclaimed
In earth and in heaven above
That You have declared in the stars You have named
With words that unveil Your love!
