Text: | The Name of our God |
1 The Name of our God
In Israel is known;
His mansion beloved
Is Sion alone:
There broke He the arrows
The enemy hurl'd,
And honour'd His mountain
Above all the world.
2 The pride of Thy foes
Is turn'd to Thy praise;
Their fierceness o'erruled
Thy providence sways;
Their sin overflowing
Thy power will restrain;
Thy arm on the wicked
New glory will gain.
3 Ye nations, to God
Vow homage sincere;
Devote to Him gifts,
Love, worship, and fear;
Before Him, ye mighty,
Your spirits repress;
Ye high and ye humble,
His wonders confess.
