21 The beasts of divers sorts, The wild, servile, and tame, God makes, feeds, and supports, To glorify his Name. To this designed, The Lord they bless, His praise express Each in his kind.

22 O man, to whom all these Thy God hath servants made, This God to LOVE and PRAISE Should be thy life and trade. Learn and be wise, Will only ye The Rebels be, And God despise?
23 Return man to thy Lord, Follow not vanity; Trust and obey his word, And trust not to a lye. He is thy God, Now seek his face, Obey his grace, Prevent his Rod.
24 O ye his chosen flock, Brought near him by his love, His Church built on the Rock, Redeemed for Joys above. Your God adore, Your voices raise, And sing his praise For evermore.
