With a Glorious Eye Op 39

for SATB Choir and Organ

Instrumentation: SATB Choir; church organ

Text:
God looks on nature with a glorious eye
And blesses all creation with the sun
Its drapery of green and brown earth ocean lie
In morning as Creation just begun
That saffron east foretells the rising sun
And who can look upon that majesty
Of light brightness and splendour nor feel won
With love of him whose bright all seeing eye
Feeds the days light with Immortality.              John Clare

Duration:  4 minutes
