Creatures vain, and God All-sufficient

His eye the heathen world surveys, He form'd their hearts, he knows their ways, But God their maker is unknown. 2 Let kings rely upon their host, And of his strength the champion boast, In vain they boast, in vain rely; In vain we trust the brutal force, Or speed or courage of an horse, To guard his rider, or to fly. 3 The arm of our almighty Lord, Doth more secure defence afford, When deaths or dangers threatening stand: Thy watchful eye preserves the just, Who make thy name their fear and trust, When wars or famine waste the land. 4 In sickness or the bloody field, Our great physician and our shield, Shall send salvation from his throne; We wait to see thy goodness shine; Let us rejoice in help divine, For all our hope is God alone. Scripture: Psalm 33 Languages: English
