The Lord Jehovah reigns;
His throne is built on high.
The garments He assumes
are light and majesty.
His glories shine With beams so bright
no mortal eye Can bear the sight.
The thunders of His hand
keep the wide world in awe;
His wrath and justice stand
to guard His holy law.
And where His love Resolves to bless
His truth confirms And seals the grace.
Through all His ancient works
surprising wisdom shines—
Confounds the powers of hell,
and breaks their cursed designs.
Strong is His arm, And shall fulfill
His great decrees, His sovereign will.
And can this mighty King
of glory condescend?
And will He write His Name:
“My Father and my Friend?”
I love His Name; I love His Word.
Join, all my powers,
And praise the Lord!
---Alternative verses---
And will this mighty King
of glory condescend,
And will He write His Name:
My Father and my Friend?
I love His Name;
I love His Word.
Join, all my powers,
And praise the Lord!
And can this mighty King
of glory condescend?
And will He write His Name:
“My Father and my Friend?”
We love His Name; we love His Word.
Join, all our powers,
And praise the Lord!
