Lyics

THE Lord Jehovah reigns,

Let all the nations fear;

Let sinners tremble at his throne,

And saints be humble there.



Jesus, the Saviour, reigns,

Let earth adore its Lord;

Bright cherubs his attendants wait,

Swift to fulfil his word.



In Zion stands his throne;

His honors are divine;

His church shall make his wonders known,

For there his glories shine.



How holy is his name!

How fearful is his praise!

Justice, and truth, and judgment join

In all the works of grace.
