You hung the stars.
How could I forget?
In Your hands there is wisdom
There is power in Your breath.
You took such care
As you planned our days
You counted the stars
And called each by name.
We’re never adrift
Your love is eternal
It’s so lovingly written in the skies above.
How great is your mercy?
It stretches the heavens
Why should I fear when I know that I’m loved?
Your stars remind us
You won’t forget
Not one star fails
We’re so greatly blessed.

Consider the Heavens and the One who Created them
“Yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.”
1 Corinthians 8:6
“By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of His mouth.”
Psalm 33:6 (NIV)
“Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: He calleth them all by names by the greatness of His might, for that He is strong in power; not one faileth.”
Isaiah 40:26 (KJV)
“To prove the greatness of God, the prophet appeals to all ages and nations. Those who are ignorant of this, are willingly ignorant. God has the command of all creatures, and of all created things. The prophet directs us to use our reason as well as our senses; to consider who created the hosts of heaven, and to pay our homage to Him. Not one fails to fulfil His will. And let us not forget, that He spake all the promises, and engaged to perform them.”
Matthew Henry’s Concise Commentary

Amen! Looking up into a clear night sky, unhindered by city lights, to see God’s galaxy of stars is something to behold.
