Psal. 113.

Ye children wch do serve the L.
prais ye his nam with one accord
Yea blessed be always his name.
Who from the rising of the Sun,
Till it return where it begun,
Is to be praised with great fame.
The L. all people doth surmount,
as for his glory we may count,
above the heavens high to be.
With God the Lord who may compare,
whose dwellings in the Heavens are:
of such great pow'r and force is He.
