Smith
Psalm 93:1, 90:2, 119:137
We come to
Thee,
O
Lord, and bow
Before the
King of
Israel
God of strength and majesty
Sacrifices of praise we bring to
Thee
Chorus
Jehovah,
Jehovah
From age to age
He is the same
Jehovah,
Jehovah
Holy and righteous is
Thy name
We praise
Thy name,
O
Lord, with song
Honor and glory to our
God belong
Lord of splendor we proclaim
All heaven and earth do
You sustain
Chorus
Praise the name of
Jehovah our
Lord!
When
David wrote the
Psalms, hecould look across the horizon and see the sunrise.
He could marvel atthe
Lord's creation and sing
His praises.
I can imagine
David lying in thegrass looking up at the clouds by day and gazing at the hundreds ofstars on a clear night, penning
Psalm 147.
His psalms span the earth andthe seasons describing clouds and rain, snow and frost, lightning andhail.
The magnificent creation that surrounds us today.
Last summer some friends invited my wife and me to join them in
Coloradofor a weekend on a beautiful mountain like.
As the sun beamed down on usin our fishing boat, we were forced to shed jackets and long-sleevedshirts and enjoy a hot, summer day, while surrounded by breathtakingsnow-capped mountains.
The glory of
God and
His divine nature are trulybroadcast by
His creation! (
Romans 1:20)
He sustains this same heavenand earth from
David's day and before, to our day and beyond.
Thousands of years after
David with our powerful telescopes, we knowmuch more about our world.
We now know the temperature of the sun andits distance from us.
We know that our earth rotates around the sun 365times each year.
We also know that if the sun was hotter or colder wecouldn't survive.
If it was closer or farther away we could not exist.
The more knowledge we have, the more reason for us to know ourexistence is not by chance.
Yesterday's television changed ourperspective, today it is computers, and tomorrow it may besupercomputers.
God has allowed us to develop a very complex world.
He has provided us the intelligence and the natural resources.
We mustnot lose our perspective; we are still living in
God's creation.
And
Hestill loves our praises!
We just have more to praise
Him for as wediscover more what
He has given us.--
David
