Psalm 19

1 The heavens declare the glory of God,

and the firmament shows the handiwork of the Lord.

2 One day tells its tale to another,

and one night imparts knowledge to another.

3 Although they have no words or language,

and their voices are not heard,

4 their sound has gone out into all lands,

and their message to the ends of the world.

Psalm 19 (continued)

5 In the deep has God set a pavilion for the sun;

it comes forth like a bridegroom out of his chamber;

it rejoices like a champion to run its course.

6 It goes forth from the uttermost edge of the heavens

and runs about to the end of it again;

nothing is hidden from its burning heat.

7 The law of the Lord is perfect and revives the soul;

the testimony of the Lord is sure

and gives wisdom to the innocent. Refrain

and righteous altogether.

more than much fine gold,

sweeter far than honey, than honey in the comb.

Many and Great, O God, Are Your Works

Many and great,

O God, are your works,

maker of earth and sky.

Your hands have set

the heavens with stars;

your fingers spread

the mountains and plains.

Lo, at your Word,

the waters were formed;

deep seas obey your voice.

Grant unto us

communion with you,

O star-abiding one.

Come unto us

and dwell with us;

with you are found

the gifts of life.

Bless us with life

that has no end,

eternal life with you.

Revive Thy Work, O Lord

Revive thy work, O Lord,

exalt thy precious name;

and, by the Holy Ghost sent down,

our love for thee inflame.


and give refreshing showers.

The glory shall be all thine own;

thy blessing, Lord, be ours.


thy mighty arm make bare;

speak with the voice that wakes the dead,

and make thy people hear.


disturb this sleep of death;

quicken the smouldering embers now

by thine almighty breath.


create soul-thirst for thee;

and hungering for the bread of life

O may our spirits be.
