Representative Text

1 The Lord, in His righteousness, judges the people;
The mountains and hills by His rule are secure;
The men of all nations, throughout all generations,
Shall honor Him as long as the sun shall endure.

2 His blessings He scatters like show’rs from the heavens,
Like rain on the fields when the grass is new mown;
His peace is descending, abundant, never ending;
The needy and oppressed doth He count as His own.

3 From sea unto sea shall He spread His dominion,
From ends of the earth to the rivers that run;
The isles of the ocean shall offer Him devotion,
All kings shall bow before Him, all nations be one.

KREMSER

The tune KREMSER owes its origin to a sixteenth-century Dutch folk song "Ey, wilder den wilt." Later the tune was combined with the Dutch patriotic hymn 'Wilt heden nu treden" in Adrianus Valerius's Nederlandtsch Gedenckclanck [sic: Nederlandtsche Gedenckclank] published posthumously in 1626.
