LyicsThe Lord Jehovah reigns,
And royal state maintains,
His head with awful glories crowned;
Arrayed in robes of light,
Begirt with sovereign might,
And rays of majesty around.
Upheld by thy commands,
The world securely stands,
And skies and stars obey thy word:
Thy throne was fixed on high
Before the starry sky:
Eternal is thy kingdom, Lord!
Thy promises are true;
Thy grace is ever new;
There fixed, thy church shall ne'er remove:
Thy saints with holy fear,
Shall in thy courts appear,
And sing thine everlasting love.
