I love it when Scripture is set to music, and this sheet music page, “The Heavens Declare the Glory of God” is lovely. It came from a mid-1920’s magazine for musicians.

Psalm 19:1-7
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
Have a blessed Sunday!
The lyrics are deeply touching and poetic and the notes themselves as they are rendered here, are a work of art! Thank you for sharing this lovely piece with us!
Thanks so much. I just love these old songs and the music sheets are wonderful!
