Lyrics The spacious firmament on high Acappella

 1.091

The spacious firmament on high


The spacious firmament on high,
With all the blue ethereal sky,
And spangled heavens, a shining frame
Their great Original proclaim.
The unwearied sun, from day to day,
Does his Creator's powers display,
And publishes to every land
The work of an Almighty Hand.

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.

What though in solemn silence all
Move round the dark terrestrial ball?
What though no real voice nor sound
Amid the 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."

Scriptural Reference:

"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands." Psalm 19:1

Biografia

Acappella is an all-male Contemporary Christian vocal group founded in 1982 by Keith Lancaster, who has variously played the role of singer, songwriter and producer throughout the group's history. Believing in the awesome versatility and flexibility of the human voice, Acappella can fill a large concert hall with beautiful, intricate music without instrumental accompaniment. Their a cappella style is characterized by complex harmonies and sophisticated arrangements, spanning from gospel to contemporary pop. Among their most representative songs are "The Lord's Prayer", "I Believe" and "He Touched Me".
