The Heavens are telling the glory of God,
The wonder of his work displays the firmament.
Today that is coming speaks it the day,
The night that is gone to following night.
The Heavens are telling the glory of God,
The wonder of his work displays the firmament.
In all the lands resounds the word,
Never unperceived, ever understood.
The Heavens are telling the glory of God,
The wonder of his work displays the firmament.
Alternative English words:
The Heavens declare the glory of God.
The firmament shows forth the wonders of his work.
And day unto day doth utter speech,
And night unto night doth knowledge show.
The Heavens declare the glory of God,
The firmament shows forth the wonders of his work.
Through all the earth their word goes forth,
Where is speech or language, there their voice is heard;
ever, ever, ever their voice is heard.
The Heavens declare the glory of God.
The firmament shows forth the wonders of his work.
