Sensible Science

“The LORD hath made known his salvation: His righteousness hath He openly showed in the sight of the heathen” (Psalm 98:2).  “If any man teach otherwise… he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth … from such withdraw thyself… O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called” (1 Timothy 6:3-5,20).

Sensible science considers the facts,
And these are the truths God has openly shown.
God hasn’t hidden His marvelous acts:
By cause and effect He has made Himself known.

Historical science is seen in salvation, 
Foretold in the Scriptures our Savior fulfilled.
Creation’s true science, by clear observation,
Demands an omniscient Creator to build.

O Lord, we give thanks for the sensible science
In all of the heavens and earth now displayed!  
We find no excuse for the willful defiance 
Of those unconvinced by the things You have made.
