1 The Lord doth reign, and cloth'd is hewith majesty most bright;His works do shew him cloth'd to be,and girt about with might.The world is also stablished,that it cannot depart.
2 Thy throne is fix'd of old, and thoufrom everlasting art.
3 The floods,O Lord, have lifted up,they lifted up their voice;The floods have lifted up their waves,and made a mighty noise.
4 But yet the Lord, that is on high,is more of might by farThan noise of many waters is,or great sea-billows are.
5 Thy testimonies ev'ry onein faithfulness excel;And holiness for ever, Lord,thine house becometh well.
