3429. Jehovah Sits Enthroned

1. Jehovah sits enthroned
In majesty most bright,
Appareled in omnipotence,
And girded round with might.

2. The world established stands
On its foundations broad;
His throne is fixed, He reigns supreme,
The everlasting God.

3. The floods have lifted up
Their voice in majesty,
But mighty is the Lord our God
Above the raging sea.

4. Thy testimonies, Lord,
In faithfulness excel,
And holy must Thy servants be
Who in Thy temple dwell.
