1. David rejoiced in God His strength,
Raised to the throne by special grace,
But Christ the Son appears at last,
Fulfills the triumph and the praise.
How great is the Messiah’s joy
In the salvation of Thy hand!
LORD, You have raised His kingdom high
And giv’n the world to His command.
2 Thy goodness grants whate’er He will,
Nor doth the least request withhold;
Blessings of love prevent Him still,
And crowns of glory, not of gold.
Honor and majesty divine
Around His sacred temples shine,
Bless'd with the favor of Thy face
And length of everlasting days.
3 Your hand shall find out all His foes.
And as a fiery oven glows;
With raging heat and living coals,
So shall Your wrath devour their souls.
Be Thou exalted, King of kings;
By Thine own strength sit Thou on high;
Your church Thy triumph loudly sings
And lift their praises to the sky.
