By awesome deeds, God answers us,
The righteousness of salvation;
The hope for all the earth is thus,
To the farthest sea formation.
By His strength established mountains,
Being girded up with such might;
Waterfalls flowing as fountains,
Power separates day from night.
God stills the roaring of the seas,
And the thundering of their waves;
Bringing a calming to the breeze,
The tumult that a person craves.
Who dwell to the ends of the earth,
Are venerating by His signs;
The dawn of the day brings new birth,
While the light from the sun shines.
The fading night shouts with delight,
Makes the outgoings for the morning;
All creatures will regain their sight,
As they see a new day forming.
The Lord visits and waters it,
He enriches the plants and trees;
Ensuring that the trees are fit,
Producing the fruit that will please.
His river is full of water,
Replenished from the fallen rain;
For days that have gotten hotter,
And providing growth for the grain.
God waters furrows abundantly,
Blessings softening with showers;
Causing the growth subsequently,
Fortified by godly powers.
He crowns the year with His reward,
Your wagon tracks overflowing;
Praise and give thanks unto the Lord,
For a yield, God is bestowing.
The pastures of the wilderness,
Meadows clothe themselves with the flocks;
The Lord of salvation does bless,
With a lifestyle, someone walks.
