Sons of the mighty! rise, and bring
Your offerings to th' eternal King
Own 'tis Jehovah, While you rise,
Your glory and your strength supplies.
His Word, all-powerful to fulfil
Th' eternal counsels of his will,
With awful majesty arrayed,
Subdues the world his hand has made.
The mountains bow, the cedars rend;
Lo! at his high command they bend!
So through the world his gospel run,
And bowed the rebel heart of man.
His word, like lightning from the skies,
Strikes deep, and quick conviction flies:
The nations tremble and adore,
Through earth, to its remotest shore.
Jesus is king! enthroned on high,
He reigns through all eternity!
His glory shall his Church increase
With strength divine, and endless peace!
