The Creation (Die Schöpfung) - Text Adjustment: Paul McCreesh / Part 1 / The Second Day: And God Made The Firmament

And God made the firmament
And divided the waters which were under the firmament
From the waters which were above the firmament
And it was so

Outrageous, dreadful storms now arise

As chaff by the winds impell'd are the clouds
By Heaven's fire the sky is enflamed

And awful roll the thunders on high

At his command, rise from the floods
Reviving showers of rain

The dreary wasteful hail

the light and flaky snow
