Give judgment to the King, O God,
Give justice to the poor;
O judge Thy people righteously
and set the needy free.
Lo! Hills and mountains shall bring forth,
Prosperity and peace;
He shall defend the needy ones,
oppressors crush to bits.
He shall descend like rain that cheers,
the righteous then shall thrive;
As long as sun and moon endure,
or time itself shall last.
His enemies shall bow their heads;
His foes shall lick the dust!
May all the kings before Him fall,
all nations yield to him.
To Him shall ev'ry king on earth
his humble homage pay;
And nations shall with gifts and presents
own His righteous sway.
For He shall set the needy free,
When they for succor cry;
Shall save the helpless and the poor,
and all their wants supply.
