Sunday Psalms and Steeples

The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands .
Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge.
There is no speech or language
where their voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
........
In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun,
which is like a bridegroom coming forth from his pavilion,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes it circuit to the other;
nothing is hidden from its heat.
.......
The law of the Lord is perfect,
reviving the soul.
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy.
making wise the simple.
The precepts of the Lord are right,
giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant
giving light to the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is pure,
enduring forever.
........
The ordinances of the Lord are sure
and altogether righteous.
They are more precious than gold,
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey
than honey from the comb.
By them is your servant warned;
in keeping then there is a great reward
........
Who can discern his errors?
Forgive my hidden faults.
Keep your servant also from willful sins;
may they not rule over me.
Then I will be blameless,
innocent of great transgression.
May the words of my mouth
and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight
O Lord my Rock, and my Redeemer.














The Psalm today is Psalm 19 ....from the (New International Version)

What beautiful pictures! Reading the Psalm brought a song to my mind. The song is "More Precious Then Gold" and was recorded by Acapella. The lyrics are taken from the Psalm

hey are more precious than gold
Sweeter than the honey
They are more precious than gold
And the honey comb

The laws of the Lord are perfect
Reviving the soul, reviving the soul
Reviving the soul

They are more precious than gold
Sweeter than the honey
They are more precious than gold
And the honey comb

They make wise the simple
They give joy to the heart
Light to the eyes
Enduring forever
Righteous altogether
They bring great reward

The laws of the Lord are perfect
Reviving the soul, reviving the soul
Reviving the soul

May the words of my mouth
And the meditation of my heart
Be pleasing in your sight
O Lord my rock
My rock and my redeemer
O Lord, my rock and my redeemer

The laws of the Lord are perfect
Reviving the soul, reviving the soul
Reviving the soul

They are more precious than gold
Sweeter than the honey
They are more precious than gold
And the honey comb
