 as they  did  at  Meribah on the  day  when  they provoked Him  in  the desert. There (He  says) your fathers  tempted  Me; yea and  they  saw  the proof (of  My  power)  and My works  (miracles).

For forty  years  I  bore up with  this  generation, until I  said  to  myself: This is  a  people  forever astray in  their  hearts; yet have  they  ignored My directions. Wherefore in My  wrath  have  I solemnly  determined  that they shall  not  enter  into My rest.

, let  us  the  Lord our God

Exultingly adore;

And all,  with  jubilation, praise

Our Saviour  evermore.

Let us  make  haste  our homage due

Before His  face  to  bring;

And let  us,  glad  and  jubilant,

Psalms to  His  glory  sing;

Because the  Lord  is  a  great God

And King,  all  gods  above; Because the  Lord  will  not reject

The people  of  His  love;

Because He  in  His  mighty hand,

All ends  of  earth  doth hold;

And doth  from  His  high throne above,

All mountain  heights behold;

Because the  sea  to  Him belongs

As work  of  His  own  hand;

Because   He    made  and 'stablished

The firm  and  solid  land.

Come, let  us  fall  before  our God,

And prostrate  Him  adore;

And before  Him  Who  made us all

Let us  our  sins  deplore.

For He  to  us  Our  Lord and God

Is, and  will  ever  be;

His chosen  people,  of  His fold

And pasture  sheep  are  we.
