1.仰望天空,浩大无边,
万千天体,交错纵横,
合成整个光明系统,
共宣上主创造奇功;
东升西落,一轮红日,
是主太初创造手迹,
祂发光辉照遍万类,
显示上主无穷能力。
2.清辉如雪,温柔皓月,
轻轻照临静寂大地,
重新自述平生故事,
赞美造化恩主上帝;
在祂周围,无数星辰,
好似万盏光辉明灯,
一面运行,一面颂主,
反复赞扬创造深恩。
3.虽然他们 谦虚恭敬,
长期静默,来复周行,
虽然他们不发声音,
仅依轨迹发出光明,
普世万众 有心聆听,
仍能听见它们见证,
光明之中,喜悦之音,
造我的主,神圣全能。
1,The spacious firmament on high,
With all the blue, ethereal sky,
And spangled heavens, a shining frame,
Their great Original proclaim.
Th’unwearied sun from day to day
Does his Creator’s power display,
And publishes to every land
The work of an almighty hand
2,Soon as the evening shades prevail,
The moon takes up the wondrous tale;
And nightly to the listening earth
Repeats the story of her birth;
While all the stars that round her burn,
And all the planets in their turn,
Confirm the tidings as they roll,
And spread the truth from pole to pole
3,What though in solemn silence all
Move round the dark terrestrial ball?
What though no real voice nor sound
Amid their radiant orbs be found?
In reason’s ear they all rejoice
And utter forth a glorious voice,
Forever singing as they shine,
“The hand that made us is divine.”
