And Summer fair, unceasing own,

"There is a God."

The mountains high, and dark, and vast—

The thunder's roar—the howling blast—

The lightnings springing thick and fast,

Amid the gloom,

That wraps the Earth, and Sea, and Sky—

The Storm-fiend's wild, terrific cry—

The Earth-quake's shock—proclaim on high,

"An awful God!"
