Text:Ascribe to Jehovah, ye angels of light

68. Ascribe to Jehovah, ye angels of light

1 Ascribe to Jehovah, ye angels of light,
Ascribe to Jehovah, all glory and might;
Ascribe the praise due to His greatness alone,
And bow, in your garments of light, at His throne.

2 The voice of Jehovah the waters control;
His glory, the thunders proclaim as they roll;
Above the dark waters He sits throned in light,
His voice is majestic, and awful in might.

3 The cedars of Lebanon, lofty though grown,
The voice of Jehovah has oft overthrown;
Dread flashes declare that His thunders are near;
The wilderness trembles, the hinds calve with fear.

4 Through heaven the thunders His glory display,
He sitteth enthroned, and the waters obey;
Jehovah sits King, and though floods may increase,
Gives strength to His people, and crowns them with peace.
