By Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him: and He is before all things, and by Him all things consist. (Col. 1:16‑17) |
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. (Rev. 4:11) |
Maker of earth and heaven, Whose arm upholds creation, To Thee we raise the voice of praise, And bend in adoration. |
We sing aloud Thy praises, Our hearts and voices blending; ’Tis Thou alone we worthy own; Thy beauty’s all transcending. |
