Let Heaven praise Your wonders,
Your faithfulness with the saints;
Marvel as my mind wanders,
Your works with no restraints.
Who in Heaven can compare,
Of the heavenly beings;
Only You compassionately care,
For the worship gatherings.
You are a God greatly feared,
In the council of holy ones;
To the Lord who is revered,
As righteous daughters and sons.
Our Lord, the God of Host,
Who is mighty as You are;
You send the Holy Ghost,
For cleansing of any scar.
You rule of the raging sea,
You still them when its waves rise;
Mighty words what You decree,
Calming the wind from its cries.
You crushed Rahab in pieces,
Scattered Your foes with Your arm;
As hostility ceases,
Prevents any further harm.
Heaven and earth your domain,
The world and all within it;
Over everything you reign,
Reflecting on Your merit.
You created south and north,
And created east and west;
While Your creatures go forth,
Enabled to do their best.
For You have a mighty arm,
As well as a strong hand;
Protecting us from all harm,
When we obey Your command.
The foundation of Your throne,
Is justice but showing grace;
Not just on merit alone,
But mercy before Your face.
