11. The Lord proclaims his power aloud

1 The Lord proclaims his power aloud,
O’er all the oceans and the land;
his voice divides the watery cloud,
and lightnings blaze at his command.

2 The Lord sits sovereign o’er the flood;
the Thunderer reigns forever King,
and makes his church his blest abode,
where we his awesome glories sing.

3 With gentler language there, the Lord
assures us grace that he imparts;
amid the raging storm, his word
speaks peace and courage to our hearts.
