Uriel: and the people of God sang praise with voice and heavenly song to end the fourth day. They proclaimed God’s power saying:
Choir: The heavens are telling the glory of God. The sky proclaims the work of God’s almighty hands.
Gabriel, Uriel, and Raphael: God’s work is proclaimed from day to day, from night that is gone to following night. In every land resounds the word, all the world can hear it, always understood.
