Who makes thick Clouds o'respread the Skie
to feed the Earth with rain:
And Grass to grow on Mountains high
as on the fertile plain.
9, 10.
He giveth to the beast his food
with plentifull supply:
And feeds the Ravens callow brood,
when hunger makes them cry.
God takes no joy in any horse,
nor in a Champions limb:
Nor can their courage, strength, or force
delight or pleasure him.
11.
But lo! the Lord doth take delight
in them that fear his Name:
And in his mercies infinite
their confidence proclaim.
