by Unknown

But our destroyer, foe to God and man.

Milton.

Heralds of creation cry,

—Praise the Lord, the Lord most high;

Heaven and earth, obey the call,

Praise the Lord, the Lord of all.

For He spake, and forth from night

Sprang the universe to light;

He commanded,—Nature heard,

And stood fast upon his word.
