10. For thy mercy is great unto the heavens. Right up
from man’s lowliness to heaven’s loftiness mercy reaches. Imagination fails to
guess the height of heaven, and even thus the riches of mercy exceed our
highest thoughts. And thy truth unto the clouds. Upon the cloud he sets
the seal of his truth, the rainbow, which ratifies his covenant; in the cloud
he hides his rain and snow, which prove his truth by bringing to his seedtime
and harvest cold and heat. Creation is great, but the Creator greater far.
Heaven cannot contain him: above clouds and stars his goodness far exceeds.
