Of God.
He is the Author of the Worlds Creation,/Foundation.The great and mighty Judge of mans Salvation,/Damnation.
The glorious Lord, and only God Above,/Of Love.
That both to men and Angels is—A God,/A Rod.
He did the World create, and by his hand
Or word, Foundations laid of Sea and Land;
Can save or damn, as he doth best approve;
Will be our God, or Rod, as we shall love.
Thou that canst hold the Winds within thy fist,
Have mercy on us, oh, thou God in Christ.
