O' Dark Early!

Earth & All Stars

I love this hymn. It always used to be a "back-to-school" hymn (Lutheran K-8 & College). This year we hadn't sung it till today Lutheran Service Book #817. Based on Psalm 96:1, Psalm 149:1-3, and Isaiah 42:10-12.

Earth and all stars, Loud rushing planets Sing to the Lord a new song! Hail, wind, and rain, Loud blowing snowstorm Sing to the Lord a new song! God has done marvelous things. We too will praise Him with a new song! 


Steel and machines, Loud pounding hammers Sing to the Lord a new song! Limestone and beams, Loud building workers Sing to the Lord a new song! God has done marvelous things. We too will praise Him with a new song! 

Classrooms and labs, Loud boiling test tubes Sing to the Lord a new song! Athlete and band, Loud cheering people Sing to the Lord a new song! God has done marvelous things. We too will praise Him with a new song! 

Knowledge and truth, Loud sounding wisdom Sing to the Lord a new song! Daughter and son, Loud praying members Sing to the Lord a new song! God has done marvelous things. We too will praise Him with a new song!
