And the whole Earth his Goodness proves, His Word the heav'nly Arches spread; How wide they shine from North to South! And by the Spirit of his Mouth Were all the starry Armies made. 3 He gathers the wide flowing Seas Those wat'ry Treasures know their Place In the vast Store-house of the Deep. He spake, and gave all Nature Birth; And Fires, and Seas, and Heav'n, and Earth, His everlasting Orders keep. 4 Let Mortals tremble and adore A GOD of such resistless Pow'r, Nor dare indulge their feeble Rage; Vain are your Thoughts, and weak your Hands; But his eternal Counsel stands, And rules the World from Age to Age.

His Eye the Heathen World surveys, He form'd their Hearts, he knows their Ways, But GOD their Maker is unknown. 2 Let Kings rely upon their Host, And of his Strength the Champion boast; In vain they boast, in vain rely; In vain we trust the brutal Force; Or Speed or Courage of an Horse, To guard his Rider, or to fly. 3 The Eye of thy Compassion, Lord, Doth more secure Defence afford When Death or Dangers threat'ning stand; Thy watchful Eye preserves the Just, Who make thy Name their Fear and Trust, When Wars or Famine waste the Land. 4 In Sickness, or the bloody Field, Thou our Physician, thou our Shield, Send us Salvation from thy Throne; We wait to see thy Goodness shine; Let us rejoice in Help divine, For all our Hope is GOD alone.
