   And set my feet upon a rock,
   And established my steps.
   He has put a new song in my mouth–
   Praise to our God;
   Many will see it and fear,
   And will trust in the LORD. Psalms 40:1-3 (NKJV)

    And for His wonderful works to the children of men!
    For He has broken the gates of bronze,
    And cut the bars of iron in two. Psalms 107:13-16 (NKJV)
