Dying for me, for me! 3 Jesus, my Saviour, the same as of old, While I was wand’ring afar from the fold, Gently and long did He plead with my soul, Calling for me, for me! Calling for me! For me! Calling for me! For me! Gently and long did He plead with my soul, Calling for me, for me! 4 Jesus, my Saviour, shall come from on high,— Sweet is the promise as weary years fly; Oh, I shall see Him descending the sky, Coming for me, for me!

The Spacious Firmament on High

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: RHC #6 (1970) Person Name: Joseph Addison Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame, Their great Original proclaim. Th'unwearied sun, from day to day Does his Creator's power display, And publishes to every land The work of an almighty hand. 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wondrous tale, And nightly to the listening earth Repeats the story of her birth; Whilst all the stars that round her burn, And all the planets in their turn, Confirm the tidings as they roll, And spread the truth from pole to pole. 3 What though in solemn silence all Move round this dark terrestrial ball? What though no real voice nor sound Amidst their radiant orbs be found? In reason's ear they all rejoice, And utter forth a glorious voice; Forever singing, as they shine, "The hand that made us is divine." Amen.
