[The spacious Firmament on high]

[_]

The following poem is scored for music in the source text.

The spacious Firmament on high,
with all the blue ethereal Sky.
And spangled Heav'ns a shining Frame,
their great Original proclaim.
The unwearied Sun from day to Day
doth his Creators Pow'r display
And Publishes to ev'ry Land
The Work of an almighty Hand
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Halle Hallelujah.
