22. Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of his dominion. Here is
a trinity of blessing for the thrice blessed God, and each one of the three
blessings is an enlargement upon that which went before. This is the most
comprehensive of all, for what can be a wider call than to all in all places?
See how finite humans can awaken unbounded praise! Redeemed man is the voice of
nature, the priest in the temple of creation, the leader in the worship of the
universe. Oh that all the Lord’s works on earth were delivered from the vanity
to which they were made subject, and brought into the glorious liberty of the
children of God: the time is hastening on and will most surely come; then will
all the Lord’s works bless him indeed. The immutable promise is ripening; the
sure mercy is on its way. Hasten ye winged hours!
