lyrics

Look to the heavens and see
and behold the clouds

Do not desire the night
Remember to magnify His words
of which men have sung
Everyone has seen it, man looks on it from afar

He draws up drops of water
which distill as rain from the mist
which the clouds drop down and pour abundantly
Can anyone understand the spreading of clouds
the thunder from His canopy?
He scatters His light upon it
and covers the depths of the sea
For by these He judges the nations

He covers His hands with lightning
and commands it to strike
His thunder declares it, the cattle as well
Hear the thunder of His voice
He sends it forth under the heavens
His lightning to the ends of the Earth

He says to the snow, "fall on the Earth"
to the gentle rain and the heavy rain of His strength

From the chamber of the south comes the whirlwind
and cold from the scattering winds of the north
He saturates the thick clouds
He scatters His bright clouds
they swirl about, He causes it to come
Whether for correction, or for His land, or for mercy
Stand still and consider the wonderous works of God
For we can do nothing because of this darkness
Even now men cannot look at the light
when it is bright in the sky
When the wind has passed and cleared them
He comes from the north as golden splendor

For He is beyond our reach
