About this illustration

The shining face is represented by sunlight rather than divine features; the nations are varied without modern flags or stereotypes.

Scripture basis: Psalms 67:1–7
  1. 1To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song. God be merciful unto us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.
  2. 2That thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health among all nations.
  3. 3Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
  4. 4O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.
  5. 5Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.
  6. 6Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.
