Creation and Sovereignty

4To him who alone doeth great wonders : for his mercy endureth for ever . 5To him that by wisdom made the heavens : for his mercy endureth for ever . 6To him that stretched out the earth above the waters : for his mercy endureth for ever . 7To him that made great lights : for his mercy endureth for ever : 8The sun to rule by day : for his mercy endureth for ever : 9The moon and stars to rule by night : for his mercy endureth for ever .

Redemption and Deliverance

10To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn : for his mercy endureth for ever : 11And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever : 12With a strong hand , and with a stretched out arm : for his mercy endureth for ever . 13To him which divided the Red sea into parts : for his mercy endureth for ever : 14And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever : 15But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea : for his mercy endureth for ever . 16To him which led his people through the wilderness : for his mercy endureth for ever .

God's Provision and Guidance

17To him which smote great kings : for his mercy endureth for ever : 18And slew famous kings : for his mercy endureth for ever : 19Sihon king of the Amorites : for his mercy endureth for ever : 20And Og the king of Bashan : for his mercy endureth for ever : 21And gave their land for an heritage : for his mercy endureth for ever : 22Even an heritage unto Israel his servant : for his mercy endureth for ever .
