The Celebration Hymnal ‎#372

372. Our God Reigns

1 How lovely on the mountains are the feet of him
Who brings good news, good news
Announcing peace, proclaiming news of happiness.
Our God reigns; our God reigns!

Refrain:
Our God reigns! our God reigns!
Our God reigns! our God reigns!

2 He had no stately form; He had no majesty,
That we should be drawn to Him.
He was despised, and we took no account of Him,
Yet now He reigns with the Most High. [Refrain]

3 Out of the tomb He came with grace and majesty;
He is alive, He is alive.
God loves us so - see here His hands, His feet, His side.
Yes, we know He is alive. [Refrain]
