There's not a star whose twinkling light
Illumes the distant earth,
And cheers the solemn gloom of night,
But goodness gave it birth.
There's not a cloud whose dew distil
Upon the parching clod,
And clothe with verdure vale and hill,
That is not sent by God.
There's not a place in earth's vast round,
In ocean deep, or air,
Where skill and wisdom are not found;
For God is ev'rywhere.
Around, beneath, below, above,
Wherever space extends,
There heaven displays its boundless love,
And pow'r with goodness blends.
