Creator God, How Grand the Earth

Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Creator God, how grand the earth you called forth with your voice! Your handiwork fills us with awe and in it we rejoice. You separated day from night, and heavens from the earth; you gathered waters into seas and gave the land its birth. 2 You filled the earth with plants and trees, all bearing fruit and seeds, and so ensured there would be food to meet your creatures’ needs. You caused the sun to shine each day, the stars and moon at night, thus marking seasons, days, and years forever by your light. 3 Fish of the sea and birds that fly appeared at your command, with living creatures of all kinds that creep and walk on land. Then in your image, by your word, you made us, humankind, that we might care for all good things that you, with love, designed. 4 Creator God, how grand the earth you called forth with your voice. In all its wonders and delights, we revel and rejoice, and yet we know you count on us to mind the earth for you. Make us good stewards, tender, wise, and fair in all we do.

There everlasting spring abides, And never-withering flowers; Death, like a narrow sea, divides This heavenly land from ours. 2 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood Stand dressed in living green; So to the Jews old Canaan stood, While Jordan rolled between. Could we but climb where Moses stood, And view the landscape o'er, Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood, Should fright us from the shore.

Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In my distress to GOD I cried, and He gave ear to me. From lying lips, and guileful tongue, O LORD, my soul set free. What shall be giv’n thee? Or what shall be done to thee, false tongue? E'en burning coals of juniper, sharp arrows of the strong. 2 Woe’s me that I in Meshech am a sojourner so long; that I in tabernacles dwell to Kedar that belong. My soul with him that hateth peace hath long a dweller been. I am for peace; but when I speak, for battle they are keen.
