4 Their visible convincing words Go forth the world's [utmost] end. A tabernacle there he set [In them] for the great glorious Sun;
5 Which as a Bridegroom-and strong man, Comes forth [with joy] his race to run.
6 From end to end of the vast Heaven, Its rise [progress] and circuit is; Nothing's hid from its lively heat, Nor [potent] influence doth miss.
6 From end to end of the vast Heav'n, Its rise [progress] and circuit is; Nothing's hid fron its lively heat, Nor [potent] influence doth miss.
7 The Law of God most perfect is, Turns [sinful] souls from vanities: ⟨p. 25⟩God's testimony is most sure, And maketh [simple] sinners wise.
