Kingdoms and thrones to God belong;
Crown him ye nations, in your song;
His wondrous names and powers rehearse;
His honours shall enrich your verse.
He shakes the heavens with loud alarms;
How terrible is God in arms!
In Israel are his mercies known,
Israel is his peculiar throne.
He rides and thunders through the sky
His name, Jehovah, sounds on high:
Praise him aloud, ye sons of grace;
The saints, rejoice before his face.
Proclaim him King, pronounce him blest;
He's your Defence, your Joy, your Rest;
When terrors rise, and nations faint,
God is the strength of every saint.
---Alternative verses---
God is our shield, our joy, our rest;
God is our King-proclaim him blest;
When terrors rise, when nations faint,
He is the strength of every saint.
