Hymnal: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament #PXCVIIa (1742) Lyrics: 1 The Lord doth reign, the earth
O let hereat reiojce:
The many isles with mirth
Let them lift up their voice.
2 About him round
Dark clouds there went, right and judgment
His throne do sound.
3 Before him fire doth go,
And burns his foes about.
4 The world was light also
By lightnings he sent out
The earth it saw.
Did tremble too. 5 Hills melt also
Like wax away.
At presence of the Lord,
At his presence who is
Of all the earth the Lord,
6 That right'ousness of his;
The heavens high
They forth do show: all folk also
His glory fee,
7 Who graven images
Do serve, on them remain
Let dreadful shamefulness:
And who in Idols vain
Themselves do boast:
With worship bow to him all you
God's angel's host.
8 Sion heard and was glad
Glad Judah's daughters were:
This cause, O Lord, they had
Thy judgments did appear.
9 For Lord, thou high
All earth set o'er, all gods before
In dignity.
10 Ye that do love the Lord,
The evil hate do ye:
To his saint's fouls afford
Protection doth he:
HE will for them
Freedom command out of the hand
Of wicked men.
11 For them that righteous are,
There surely is sown light,
And gladness for their share
That are in heart uprght.
12 Joy in the Lord,
Ye just: confess his holiness
While ye record.
