The Origins Of Virtue - The Firmament Lyrics

The heavens declare the glory of God
And the firmament
Show-eth His handywork
Day unto day
Uttered speech
And night unto night
Show-eth knowledge
There is no speech nor language
Where their voice is not heard
Their line is gone out through all the earth
And their words to the end of the world
In them hath He set a tabernacle for the sun
Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber
And as for man
When my heart beats, Lord, it beats for You
And when I sing, O Lord, I sing for You
And if I stand, I stand to worship You
And if I fall
I shall fall so that I may praise You
I may fall so that I may praise You, God
The law of the Lord is perfect
Converting the soul
The testimony of the Lord is sure
Making wise the simple
The statues of the Lord are right
Rejoicing the heart
The commandment of the Lord is pure
Enlightening the eyes
The fear of the Lord is clean
Enduring forever
The judgments of the Lord are true
And righteous altogether
More to be desired are they than gold
Yes, than much fine gold
Sweeter also than honey in the honeycomb
Moreover by them is thy servant warned
And in keeping of them there is great reward
Who can understand his errors
Cleanse thou me from secret faults
Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins
Let them not have dominion over me
Then shall I be upright
And I shall be innocent from the great transgression
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer
