The Prayer Of Habakkuk

4 And the brightness is as the light, He hath rays out of His hand, And there -- the hiding of His strength. 5 Before Him goeth pestilence, And a burning flame goeth forth at His feet. 6 He hath stood, and He measureth earth, He hath seen, and He shaketh off nations, And scatter themselves do mountains of antiquity, Bowed have the hills of old, The ways of old are His.
