8 The Sun to rule and sway The motions of the day; His mercies sure do still endure, And never fall away.
9 The Moon and Stars of light He made to rule the night; His mercies sure do still endure, For they are infinite.
10 To him your praise devote, Who Egypt's first-born smote; His mercies sure do still endure Of everlasting note.
11 Who from among them all Brought Israel out of thrall; His mercies sure do still endure, And are perpetual.
12 With strong out-stretched hand And arm, at his command; His mercies sure do still endure, And shall for ever stand.
