Excerpt from New Hymn and Tune Book: An Offering of Praise for the Methodist Episcopal Church

When at the fiat of Infinite Wisdom a universe sprang into existence, when the proud waves of the deep were stayed, and the earth wore a rich mantle of verdure, fresh from the hand of its Creator, when the music of a thousand streams mingled with the melody of birds and ¿owers, the volume of inspira tion tells us the morning stars sang together for joy. It was not the carol of a little twinkling star at one corner of the universe, nor a choir or quartette of the asteroids. But a grand chorus of God's heavens singing out, in concert with nature, praise and glory to him who gave them birth!
