Religion

The Lord who did by David speak.
Our sovereign Lord we own,
Refuge in Him alone we seek,
We trust in Him alone:
The heavens and earth, and sea, He made,
And all which they contain,
And doth by His continual aid
His universe sustain.

Inspirer of the sacred Book,
His own authentic word,
The Holy Ghost by David spoke
Our sovereign God and Lord:
His true Divinity express'd,
His majesty and power,
By all the saints of God confess'd,
We worship evermore.
