HYMN. C. M.

1 THE Lord our God is clothed with might ; -
The winds o| bey.. his | will;

He speaks

and in his heavenly height
The roll..ing | sun.. stands | still.
2 Rebel, ye waves, and o'er the land
With threatening | as..pect | roar;
The Lord uplifts his awful hand,-
And chains. . you | to.. the shore
3 Ye winds of night, your force combine;
Without his high.. be- | hest,
Ye shall not, in the mountain pine,
Disturb.. the | spar.. row's nest.
4 His voice sublime is heard afar;
In distant peals..it dies;

He binds the whirlwind to his car,
And sweeps.. the | howl.. ing | skies.

5 Ye nations, bend; -in reverence bend; -
Ye monarchs, I wait.. his | nod,

And bid the choral song ascend
To cel..e-brate.. our | God.
