When Israel out of Egypt went
From people of a speech unknown
The Lord among His people dwelt
And there He set his royal throne.
The sea beheld and fled away
The Jordan’s waters backward turned
The lofty mountains and the hills
With trembling awe our God discerned.
What aileth thee
O troubled sea?
Thou Jordan
why thy riven tide?
Ye mountains and ye little hills
Why thus dismayed on every side?
O tremble
earth
before the Lord
In presence of Jehovah fear
Beneath whose touch the flinty rock
Became a fount of water clear.
