4. For thy mercy is great above the heavens, and
therefore there must be no limit of time, or place, or people, when that mercy
is to be extolled. As the heavens overarch the whole earth, and from above
mercy pours down upon people, so shalt thou be praised everywhere beneath the
sky. And thy truth reacheth unto the clouds. As far as we can see we
behold thy truth and faithfulness, and there is much beyond which lies shrouded
in cloud, but we are sure that it is all mercy, though it be far above and out
of our sight. Therefore shall the song be lifted high and the psalm shall peal
forth without stint of far-resounding music. Here is ample space for the
loudest chorus, and a subject which deserves thunders of praise.
