Another of the same,
O Laud the Lord benigne,
Whose mercies last for ay:
[verse 2] Give thanks and praises sing
To God of gods, I say.
For certainly
His mercies dure
Both firm and sure
Eternally.
[verse 3] The Lord of lords praise ye,
Whose mercies ay do dure:
[verse 4] Great wonders onely he
Doth work by his great power,
For certainly, &c.
[verse 5] Which God omnipotent
By his great wisdom high
The heavenly firmament
Did frame as we may see.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 6] Yea, he the heavy charge
Of all the earth did stretch:
And on the waters large
The same he did out reach.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 7] Great lights he made to be;
For why? his love is ay:
[verse 8] Such as the sun we see,
To rule the lightsom day.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 9] And eke the moon so clear
Which shineth in our sight,
And stars that do appear.
To guide the darksom night.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 10] With grievous plagues and sore
All Egypt smote he than:
The first-born less and more
He slew of beast and man.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 11] And from amidst their land
His Israel forth brought:
[verse 12] Which he with mighty hand
And stretched arm hath wrought.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 13] The sea he cut in two,
Which stood up like a wall:
[verse 14] And made through it to go
His chosen children all.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 15] But there he whelmed then
The proud king Pharaoh
With his huge host of men,
And chariots eke also.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 16] Who led through wilderness
His people safe and sound:
[verse 17] And for his love endless
Great kings he brought to ground.
For certainly, &c.
[verse 18] And slew with puissant hand
Kings mighty and of fame:
[verse 19] As of Amorites land
Sehon the king by name.
For certainly, &c.
