Stand astonished ye Heavens, and wonder O ye Angels, at this infinite grace! Was ever any under Heaven more beholding to free grace than I? Doth God use to do thus, with his creatures? Admire him for over and ever, O ye redeemed ones! O those joys, the taste of which I have! Those everlasting joys, which are at his right hand for evermore!

O, help me to praise the Lord for his mercy endureth for ever!
