This week with my kids we have been singing the following version of Psalm 19 to the tune of \u201cLead on O King Eternal.\u201d This only covers verses 1-6 & 14, so it would be better if it covered all these verses. It does capture though the connection between natural and special revelation, and the grandeur of God\u2019s word. Joined with this noble tune, it is a grand celebration of the glory of God in creation and the purity of His word as well as a call to faithful obedience.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Psalm 19<\/strong><\/p>\n
The heav\u2019ns declare Thy glory, the firmament Thy power;<\/p>\n
Day unto day the story repeats from hour to hour;<\/p>\n
Night unto night replying, proclaims in every land,<\/p>\n
O Lord, with voice undying, the wonders of Thy hand.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The sun with royal splendor goes forth to chant Thy praise;<\/p>\n
And moonbeams soft and tender their gentler anthem raise;<\/p>\n
O\u2019er every tribe and nation that music strange is poured,<\/p>\n
The song of all creation, to Thee, creation\u2019s Lord.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
How perfect, just, and holy the precepts Thou hast given;<\/p>\n
Still making wise the lowly, they lift the thoughts to heav\u2019n;<\/p>\n
How pure, how soul restoring, Thy gospel\u2019s heav\u2019nly ray,<\/p>\n
A brighter radiance pouring than noon of brightest day.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
All heav\u2019n on high rejoices to do its Maker\u2019s will;<\/p>\n
The stars with solemn voices resound Thy praises still;<\/p>\n
So let my whole behavior, thoughts, words, and actions be,<\/p>\n
O Lord, my Strength, my Savior, one ceaseless song to Thee.<\/p>\n
