LyicsTwas God who fix'd the rolling spheres,
And stretch'd the boundless skies,
Who form'd the plan of endless years,
And bade the ages rise.
From everlasting in his might,
Immense and unconfined;
He pierces through the realms of light,
And rides upon the wind.
He speaks; all nature's wheels stand still,
And leave their wonted round;
The mountains melt; each trembling hill
Forsakes its ancient bound.
Ye worlds, and ev'ry living thing,
Fulfill his high command:
Pay grateful homage to your King,
And own his ruling hand.
