Psalms 136:6. To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
We ought to praise him for the making of every country, especially, I think, we who dwell on these favored islands, because he has placed our lot in an island.
"He bade the waters round thee flow;
Not bars of brass could guard thee so."
We might have been beneath the tyrant’s foot, if it had not been for "the silver streak" that gives us liberty. The whole earth, wherever men dwell, will afford some peculiar reason for their praise to Jehovah.
