Proclaiming throughout the universe
I look up at the starry heavens and can see
the galaxies proclaiming God's great majesty.
As throughout the whole world the shining stars declare
God's greatness to us all and of His loving care.
There's no place on earth in which their voice is not heard
speaking in celestial tongues and ancient word.
They talk of immense distance and eons of time,
of beginnings and endings, and things so sublime.
Shining bright in a universe that is so vast,
as into the present comes light from the past.
Enabling me to see God’s creativity,
and to contemplate the things of eternity.
For each star in our endless universe so bright
shines out for His Glory throughout day and night
and unceasingly their amazing anthems raise
singing “Glory to God” in harmonious praise.
Whenever I tune into what they have to say
I join their praise as I walk on upon my way.
Lifting my spirit up to the heavens’ above,
praising the Lord my God for His mercy and love.
