14 – God of Everlasting Glory

God of everlasting glory, Filling earth and sky, Everywhere Thy wonders open To our searching eye; In our telescopic probing – Light years from our world, In the atom’s theoried structure Science has unfurled.

As we push man’s frontiers forward Into outer space, Reaching for the stars and planets, Still Thy hand we trace; In the laboratory’s silence, Where Thy secrets hide, There the marvels of creation Are for us supplied.

In the open book of nature Faith remains unmoved – Patterns of the Master Builder By each fact are proved; So with reverent hearts we ponder All the grand design of the universe around us, Wrought by hands divine.

Thru the course of human history Has Thy purpose run, And in substance have we seen Thee In Thy glorious Son; He it was who came to save us And our hopes to raise – God of everlasting glory, Thy great name we praise!
