Representative Text

1 With glory clad, with strength arrayed,
the Lord, that o'er all nature reigns,
the world's foundations strongly laid,
and the vast fabric still sustains.

2 How surely 'stablished is your throne,
which shall no change or period see!
For you, O Lord, and you alone,

and make the angry sea comply.

4 Your promise, Lord, is ever sure,
and they that in thy house would dwell,
that happy station to secure,
must still in holiness excel.
