| Doth not all nature around me praise God? If I were silent, I should be an exception to the universe. Doth not the thunder praise Him as it rolls like drums in the march of the God of armies? Do not the mountains praise Him when the woods upon their summits wave in adoration? Doth not the lightning write His name in letters of fire? Hath not the whole earth a voice? And shall I, can I, silent be? Author: Charles Spurgeon |
| No chorus is too loud, no orchestra too large, no Psalm too lofty for the lauding of the Lord of Hosts. Author: Charles Spurgeon

Do not hope to get to heaven in that style. But now begin to bless the name of the Lord. Author: Charles Spurgeon |
