1 Jehovah reigns; let earth be glad
and all the isles their joy make known;
with clouds and darkness He is clad,
on truth and justice rests His throne.

2 Consuming fire destroys His foes,
around the world His lightnings blaze;
the trembling earth His presence knows,
the mountains melt before His gaze.

3 The heav'ns His righteousness proclaim,
through earth His glory shines abroad;
from idol-worship turn with shame
and bow before the living God.

4 Zion rejoices to behold
Thy judgments in the earth, O LORD;
Thy glory to the world unfold,
supreme o'er all be Thou adored.

5 All ye that truly love the LORD,
hate sin, for He is just and pure;
to saints His help He will accord
and keep them in His love secure.

6 For good men light and joy are sown
to bless them in the harvest-time;
ye saints, your joy in GOD make known
and ever praise His Name sublime.
