1. “At the sound of his thunder, my heart pounds.It is as if my heart will jump out of my chest.
2. Listen! Listen to the thunder of God’s voice.Listen to the rumbling that comes from his mouth.
3. He turns his lightning loose under the whole sky.And he sends it to the farthest parts of the earth.
4. After that you can hear the roarwhen he thunders with a great sound.He does not hold back the flashingwhen his voice is heard.
5. God’s voice thunders in wonderful ways.He does great things we cannot understand.
6. God says to the snow, ‘Fall on the earth.’And he says to the rain shower, ‘Be a heavy rain.’
7. With it, God stops everyone from working.That way, everyone knows it is the work of God.
8. The animals take cover from the rain.They stay in their dens.
9. The storm comes from where it was stored.The cold comes from the strong winds.
10. The breath of God makes ice.And the wide waters become frozen.
11. God fills the clouds up with water.And he scatters his lightning through them.
12. At God’s command they swirl aroundover the whole earth.They do whatever he commands.
