  “Speak, lips of mine! And tell abroad The praises of my God. Speak, stammering tongue! In gladdest tone, Make His high praises known. “Speak, sea and earth! Heaven’s utmost star, Speak from your realms afar! Take up the note, And send it round Creation’s farthest bound. “Speak, heaven of heavens! Wherein our God Has made His bright abode. Speak, angels, speak! In songs proclaim His everlasting name. “Speak, son of dust! Thy flesh He took And heaven for thee forsook. Speak, child of death! Thy death He died, Bless thou the Crucified.” —Dr. Bonar. |
