Here is a shop, wherein is set out the wisdom, and knowledge, the power, the judgements and mercies of God. Which way soever we look, we see the works of his hands. His works of creation, and preservation of all things: his works of severe justice upon the wicked, and of gracious redemption to the believer. If we desire pleasant Music, or excellent harmony: it speaketh unto us the words of the Father, and the consent of the Son: the excellent reports of the Prophets, Apostles, Angles; and Saints of God, who have been all taught by the holy Ghost. If we would learn, it is a school, it giveth understanding to the simple. In it there is, that may content the heart, the ear, the eye, the taste, and the smelling. It is a saver of life unto life.1 Oh taste ye and see, how gracious the Lord is, saith the Prophet David. So manifold and marvellous are the pleasures which are given us in the word of God. God hath made them, and wrought them all for the Sons of men.
