Psalm 19 (The Heavens…) by Shane Heilman and Chris Heesch The heavens declare the glory of God The skies proclaim the work of His hands Day after day, they pour forth speech Night after night, they teach There is no place, nowhere on earth Where their voice cannot be heard Their words go out through all the earth To the end of the world In them God has placed the sun Rising from his grand pavilion Like a groom coming out of his chamber to see his bride Like a strong man runs his race with joy It laughs and bounds its way across the sky There is nothing hidden from its warmth And the perfect love of God The law of the LORD is perfect Converting and reviving the soul The testimonies of the LORD are sure Making the foolish wise The precepts of the LORD are right Delighting and rejoicing the heart The commandment of the LORD is pure Enlightening the eyes And the fear of the LORD Is clean, it endures forever And the judgments of Yahweh Are true and always right His word is more to be desired Than all the finest gold in the world Sweeter than the honeycomb In His word is warning and great reward Who can understand the depths of his sin? Cleanse me from hidden faults Turn me away from willful sins Don’t let them have mastery over me And then I’ll be blameless And I’ll be innocent May the words of my mouth The meditation of my heart Be pleasing unto You My rock and my redeemer
