God helps the stranger in distress, the widowed and the parentless, and grants the prisoner sweet release. 4 I'll praise my Maker while I've breath; and when my voice is lost in death, praise shall employ my nobler powers. My days of praise shall ne'er be past while life and thought and being last, or immortality endures.

Oh, how your wonders are displayed, where'er I turn my eye: If I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky! 3 On earth there's not a plant or flower but makes your glories known. The clouds arise and spread their showers by order from your throne. All life is but a gift from you and ever in your care; Wherever people gather, you, O God, are present there.
