In the sun, and moon, and stars,

by Reginald Heber

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 178 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

In the sun, and moon, and stars, Signs and wonders have appeared; Earth has groaned with bloody wars, And the hearts of men have feared.

Verse 2

Soon shall ocean’s hoary deep, Tossed with stronger tempests, rise; Darker storms the mountain sweep, Fiercer lightning rend the skies.

Verse 3

Dread alarms shall shake the proud, Pale amazement, restless fear; And, amid the thunder-cloud, Shall the Judge of men appear.

Verse 4

But, though from His awful face, Heaven shall fade, and earth shall fly, Fear not, ye, His chosen race, Your redemption draweth nigh.
