Clap hands, all people, shout to God

Clap hands, all people, shout to God

Author: John Barnard
Published in 1 hymnal

Representative Text

1. Clap hands, all people, shout to God;
With voice of triumph to him sing;
2. For God, most high, is terrible;
O'er all the earth, he's a great King.
3. He makes the people to submit;
And nations at our feet couch down
4. Our heritage, for us, he chose;
His loved Jacob's glorious drown.

5. God is ascended with a shout;
Jehovah with the trumpet's lays.
6. Sing praises to our God, praise sing;
Sing praises to our King, sing praise.
7. For God, of all the earth, is King;
Your deepest skill in praise be shown.
8. God reigneth over heathen lands;
God sits upon his holy throne.

9. Princes of nations freely join,
To serve the God of Abraham;
For shields of the earth to God belong,
Exalted greatly is his name.
