The ocean looketh up to heaven
Author: Whittier Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #330 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The ocean looketh up to heaven
As 't were a living thing;
The homage of its waves is given
In ceaseless worshiping.
2 They kneel upon the sloping sand
As bends the human knee:
A beautiful and tireless band--
The priesthood of the sea.
3 The mists are lifted from the rills,
Like the white wing of prayer;
They kneel above the ancient hills,
As doing homage there.
4 The forest-tops are lowly cast
O'er breezy hill and glen,
As if a prayerful spirit passed
On nature as on men.
5 The sky is as a temple's arch;
The blue and wavy air
Is glorious with the spirit-march
Of messengers at prayer. Topics: General Praise; Nature's Worship

Author: Whittier Hymnal: A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #85 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: The ocean looketh up to heaven Lyrics:
The ocean looketh up to heaven,
As ’twere a living thing;
The homage of its waves is given,
In ceaseless worshipping.
They kneel upon the sloping sand
As bends the human knee;
A beautiful and tireless band,
The priesthood of the sea.
The mists are lifted from the rills,
Like the white wing of prayer;
They kneel above the ancient hills,
As doing homage there.
The forest-tops are lowly cast
O’er breezy hill and glen,
As if a prayerful spirit passed
On nature as on men.
The sky is as a temple’s arch:
The blue and wavy air
Is glorious with the spirit march
Of messengers at prayer.
