1 The Lord is king and weareth
a robe of glory bright,
he clothed with strength appeareth,
and girt with powerful might.
2 The earth he hath so grounded
that moved it cannot be;
his throne long since was founded,
more old than time is he.
3 The waters highly flowing
have raised their voice, O Lord;
the seas their fury showing
with billows loud have roared.
4 But God is strength excelleth
strong seas and powerful deeps;
with him still pureness dwelleth,
and firm his truth he keeps.
