169. The Lord is King! lift up thy voice

1 The Lord is King! lift up thy voice,
O earth! and all ye heavens rejoice!
From world to world the joy shall ring:
The Lord Omnipotent is King!

2 The Lord is King! who then shall dare
Resist his will, distrust His care?
Holy and true are all His ways;
Let every creature speak His praise.

3 The Lord is King! exalt your strains,
Ye saints! you God, your Father, reigns;
One Lord and Savior all secures;
He reigns, and life and death are yours.
