Not Silent
The heavens are declaring the glory of God on High
His handiwork is baring His glories in the sky
His mercies speak forth, unto all the earth
And the heavenly hosts reply
They call out to their creator bearing witness to every eye
Creation is declaring
I see the seasons wearing
A coat of colors theyíre known by
He is not silent, and he still speaks
Loudly and clearly in mountain peaks
In fields and streams and sky
And though you may not comprehend,
The silent witness is your friend.
Every man must answer why.
By Godís self-revelation each manís without excuse
Itís established a relation so every thing is Grace-infused
In His works we delight when we see with new sight And we fall in Holy fear
He speaks through all creation if we hear with listening ear.
If his light we do not refuse
He speaks through all creation in ever changing hues.
Day unto day and night unto night His handiworks all show
There is no speech or language yet every man shall know
Into all the Earth to declare His true worth their lines shall ever go
Itís Godís true revelation unto every heart bestowed.
Creation is declaring
I see the seasons wearing
A coat of colors theyíre known by
He is not silent, and he still speaks
Loudly and clearly in mountain peaks
In fields and streams and sky
And though you may not comprehend,
The silent witness is your friend.
Every man must answer why.
