The Creation Hymn                

 

I.   The creation hymn

     A. Rev 4:11

        "Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor

         and power: for thou hast created all things, and

         for thy pleasure they are and were created"

     B. Many of the Psalms were written to praise God for

        his work in creation

        1. Ps 8:3

           "When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy

            fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou

            hast ordained"

        2. Ps 19:1-4

           "The heavens declare the glory of the God; and

            the firmament sheweth his handiwork. 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 he

            set a tabernacle for the sun"

        3. Ps 100:3

           "Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that

            hath made us, not we ourselves; we are his

            people, and the sheep of his pasture"

        4. Ps 104:1,5

           "Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou

            art very great; thou art clothed with honor and

            majesty. Who laid the foundations of the earth,

            that it should not be removed forever"
