Author: Wallace Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #23 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 There's not a tint that paints the rose,
Or decks the lily fair,
Or streaks the humbles flower that blows,
But God has placed it there.
2 There's not a star whose twinkling light
Illumes the distant earth,
And cheers the solemn gloom of night,
But goodness gave it birth.
3 There's not a cloud whose dews distill
Upon the parching clod,
And clothe with verdure vale and hill,
That is not sent by God.
4 There's not a place in earth's vast round,
In ocean's deep, or air,
Where skill and wisdom are not found;
For God is everywhere.
5 Around, beneath, below, above,
Wherever space extends,
There heaven displays its boundless love,
And power with goodness blends.
