The Cyber Hymnal ‎#5755

5755. Rejoice, Ye People, Homage Give

1. Rejoice, ye people, homage give,
To God with voice of triumph sing;
He ruleth in dread majesty,
The great, the universal king.

2. He putteth nations under us
And maketh us triumphant stand;
He giveth for our heritage
His promised rest, a goodly land.

3. God hath ascended with a shout,
Jehovah with the trumpet’s sound;
Sing praise to God our king, sing praise,
Yes, let His glorious praise abound.

4. Our God is king of all the earth,
With thoughtful heart His praise make known;
O’er all the nations God doth reign,
Exalted on His holy throne.

5. To praise and serve our covenant God
The princes of the earth draw nigh;
All kingly pow’rs belong to Him,
He is exalted, God most high.
