The Lord is King

The Lord is King, the earth rejoices.

Coastlands and hills, lift up your voice.

Darkness and clouds disperse and scatter.

Justice and right have come to reign.

—–

Thunder is heard mid lightning flashes/

Mountaintops shake before the Lord.

Heavens proclaim their maker’s greatness.

gods of the earth forsake their pride.

—–

God’s light will shine, upon the righteous.

Upright in heart will know true joy.

People rejoice, for God’s victorious.

Thanks be to God, forevermore.
