                    Great God Who Made the Universe


1.   Great God who made the universe and knows the stars by name, Who set
     the sun and moon and all the planets in their frame, Who made a billion
     galaxies and scattered them through space, Who made a jewel and called it
     earth and gave it honored place.

2.   He made the day, He made the night, He made the wind that blows, He
     made the sky, He made the land, He made the rain and snow, He made the
     mountains and the plains, He made the shining seas, He blessed the earth
     with greenery and shaded it with trees.

3.   All living things on earth He made, yes, ev'ry beast that breathes, The birds
     that frolic in the sky, the whales that sport at sea, All cattle and all creeping
     things, all creatures great and small, And then a man and woman with
     dominion o'er them all.

4.   The seventh day He made a time of rest for God and man That we might
     ever mindful be of His eternal plan. Why did God labor mightily to make
     the earth we see? To give a cradle to all life and grow His family.

5.   When Christ shall come to earth again, and curses shall be done, And
     beautiful as earth was made, it shall again become, But even still more
     beautiful new heav'n and earth shall be, And God at last shall dwell with
     men for all eternity.
