Lord of the Boundless Curves of Space
Text by Albert F. Bayly (1901-1984)
Sung to the tune SAN ROCCO, by Derek Williams (1945- )
Psalm 33:9 When he spoke, the world was created; at his command everything appeared.
V. 1 Lord of the boundless curves of space
And time's deep mystery,
To Your creative might we trace
All nature's energy.
Ephesians 1:9 God did what he had purposed, and made known to us the secret plan he had already decided to complete by means of Christ.
V. 2 Your mind conceived the galaxy,
Each atom's secret planned,
And every age of history
Your purpose, Lord, has spanned.
Genesis 1:27 So God created human beings, making them to be like himself. He created them male and female.
V. 3 Yours is the image stamped on man,
Though marred by man's own sin;
And Yours the liberating plan
Again his soul to win.
John 8:32 "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
V. 4 Give us to know Your truth; but more,
The strength to do Your will;
Until the love our souls adore
Shall all our being fill.
