St. Francis of Assisi composed a hymn of praise, "Canticle of the Creatures", addressing God and praising Him for creating all things in nature, including Brother Sun who brings light and Sister Moon and the stars in the heavens. The canticle recognizes that all creatures reflect God's likeness and that praise is due to God alone as the all-powerful, all-good creator of all.

The Canticle of The Creatures
St Francis of Assisi Most High, all-powerful, all-good Lord, all praise is Yours, all glory, all honour and all blessings.
To you alone, Most High, do they belong,
and no mortal lips are worthy to pronounce Your Name. Praised be You, my Lord, through all Your creatures, and first Sir Brother Sun, who brings the day and through whom You give us light.
And he is beautiful and radiant
with great splendour, of You, Most High, he bears the likeness. Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars; in the heavens You have made them bright and precious and fair.
