4 He to himself hath Jacob chose, And Israel his own treasure made;
5 I know the Lord our God is great, Above all Gods in honour had.
6 In heaven and earth the Lord hath done Whatever his own will did please; ⟨p. 230⟩And also in the deeps below, And in the great and swelling Seas.
6 In heav'n and earth the Lord hath done Whatever his own will did please; ⟨p. 230⟩And also in the deeps below, And in the great and swelling Seas.
7 From the earth's ends it's he that makes The vapours upward to ascend; He doth make Lightnings for the rain, And Winds out of his treasure send.
