For All The World To See

 

From divine providence

And unplumbed majesty

God spills unrivaled excellence

For all the world to see

The wonder that yet waits

Evades our eyes and ears

Save, through a gap in pearly gates

Where glory’s glimpse appears

Before dumbfounded gaze

God flings His artistry

The firmaments declare His praise

For all the world to see

     Let's pause, because the earth

And sky profusely brim

With creation's marvelous mirth

In evidence of Him

...and it would be a shame

To rush negligently

Where all creation shouts His Name

For all the world to see

Psalm 148:13

Let them praise the name of the Lord,
    for his name alone is lifted up;
        his majesty transcends earth and heaven.
