By awesome deeds through righteousness, O God of our salvation; The hope of all with blessedness, Building a righteous foundation. The hope to the ends of the earth, And beyond of the farthest seas; Showing to us of its true worth, Calming fears putting us at ease. The One who by His strength and might, His strength established the mountains; Being girded with force by light, Quenching our thirst with fountains. He stills the seas roaring their waves, Able to calm tumult people; And will resurrect them from graves, For those with faith in the Gospel. Those who dwell in uttermost parts, Are in awe at His keepsake signs; He makes the going out with hearts, With joy of His glory that shines. God visits the earth to water it, Nourishes soil to enrich; To provide grain through His merit, A lush harvest without a glitch. He abundantly waters the fields, Softening the grounds with showers; Blessing of the harvest that yields, Covering a blanket of flowers. He crowns the year with His bounty, Paths overflow with abundance; Increasingly fertility, For His caring has evidence. Wilderness pastures overflow, The hills rejoice every side; A luscious joy as all things grow, The ultimate farmer as guide. The meadows clothed themselves with flocks, Valleys deck themselves with the grain; They shout for joy as one talks, Singing together in the rain.
