[verse 21] Let men therfore before the Lorde, confes his kindnes then, And shew the wonders that he doeth, before the sonnes of men. [verse 22] And let them offer sacrifice, with thankes and also feare, And speake of all his wondrous works with glad and ioyfull cheare.

[verse 23] Suche as in shippes or brittell barkes, into the seas descend, Their marchandise through fearful flods to compas and to ende. [verse 24] Those men are forced to beholde, the Lordes workes, what they be:

And in the dangerous depe the same, most marueilous they see.

[verse 25] For at his worde, the stormie winde, ariseth in a rage: And stirreth vp the surges so, as nought can them asswage. [verse 26] Then are they lifted by so hygh. the clouds they seme to gayne: And plunging downe the depth vntill, theyr soules consume with payne.

[verse 27] And like a drunkard, to and fro, now here now there they reele: As men with teare of wit bereft, or had of sense no feele. [verse 28] Then did they cry in theyr distresse, vnto the Lorde for ayde: Who did remoue their troublous state according as they prayde.

[verse 29] For with his word the Lord doth make the sturdie storme to cease: So that the gret waues frō their rage, are brought to rest and peace. [verse 30] Then are men glad when rest is come which they so muche doo craue, And are by him in hauen brought, which they so fayne woulde haue.
