Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #99A (2012) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Enthronement Psalms First Line: The LORD is king enthroned in might Lyrics: 1 The LORD is king enthroned in might
on wings of cherubim;
he reigns in holiness and light,
bow down to worship him!
Beyond all majesty and praise
his holy name confess;
the king of everlasting days,
who rules in righteousness.
2 Of old to priests and prophets known
with trembling, fear and awe,
he gave his people, set in stone,
his statutes and his law.
By those who called upon his name
the voice of God was heard,
his presence shown in cloud and flame
when they obeyed his word.
3 O magnify the God of grace
who hears his people's cry,
and come with songs before his face,
exalt his name on high!
To see at last, by grace restored
from sin and all its stains,
the holy mountain of the Lord
where God in glory reigns. Scripture: Psalm 99 Tune Title: ELLACOMBE
The LORD Is King, Enthroned in Might
