Jehovah reigns, let therefore all,
the guilty nations quake:
On cherubs wings he sits enthroned;
let earth's foundations shake.
On Zion's hill he keeps his court,
his palace makes her tow'rs;
Yet thence his sov'reignty extends
supreme o'er earthly pow'rs,
Let therefore all with praise address
his great and dreadful Name;
And with his unresisted might
his holiness proclaim.
For truth and justice in his reign
of strength and pow'r take place;
His judgments are with righteousness
dispensed to Jacob's race.
Therefore exalt the Lord our God,
before his footstool fall;
And with his unresisted might
his holiness extol.
Moses and Aaron thus of old
among his priests adored;
Among his prophets Samuel thus
his sacred Name implored.
Distressed, upon the Lord they called,
who ne'er their suit denied;
But, as with rev'rence they implored,
he graciously replied;
For with their camp, to guide their march,
the cloudy pillar moved:
They kept his laws, and to his will
obedient servants proved.
He answered them, forgiving oft.
his people for their sake;
And those who rashly them opposed,
did sad examples make.
With worship at his sacred courts
exalt our God and Lord;
For he, who only holy is,
alone should be adored.
