What is the context?
The song calls praise good and lovely, then names Jerusalem’s rebuilding and the gathering of Israel’s exiles. God’s healing attends to broken hearts and wounds.
The vision moves to stars known and named, power, and limitless understanding. That greatness does not prevent Him from sustaining the humble.
The contrast joins immense rule and close care. It is not a catalogue of stellar names or a promise that grief follows a fixed recovery schedule.
How is this passage commonly understood?
Wesley reads the stars’ names through God’s complete knowledge. His explanation keeps the image about divine awareness rather than implying that the singer supplies a scientific inventory.
