^^ This is a photo I took with my cellphone camera right at the peak of totality. We had a viewing party here at our church in Greenwood, Indiana. The weather was wonderful, and the viewing conditions were ideal. A church group from Louisville, Kentucky, came up and shared the experience with our people. The eclipse started at 1:50 and peaked at 3:07.

A Bible verse I shared with the folks is Psalm 19:1, "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork." A hymn stanza I thought of is this one:

O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hand hath made,
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy pow'r throughout the universe displayed;
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee,
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee.
How great Thou art! How great Thou art!
