In his hand are earth's deep places, also his are all the hills; his the sea whose bounds he traces, his the land his bounty fills. 3 To the LORD, such might revealing, let us come with reverence meet, and, before our Maker kneeling, let us worship at his feet. He is our own God who leads us, we the people of his care; with a shepherd's hand he feeds us as his flock in pastures fair. 4 While he offers peace and pardon let us hear his voice today, lest, if we our hearts should harden, we should perish in the way-- lest to us, so unbelieving, he in judgment should declare: "You, so long my Spirit grieving, never in my rest will share."
