EN 970 O for a Shout of Sacred Joy

Ps.47.1

Versi Version 1

1

O for a shout of sacred joy

To God the sov’reign King!

Let ev’ry land their tongues employ,

And hymns of triumph sing.

2

Jesus our God ascends on high,

His heav’nly guards around

Attend Him rising through the sky,

With trumpets’ joyful sound.

3

While angels shout and praise their King,

Let mortals learn their strains;

Let all the earth His honors sing;

O’er all the earth He reigns.

4

Rehearse His praise with awe profound,

Let knowledge lead the song,

Nor mock Him with a solemn sound

Upon a thoughtless tongue.

5

In Isr’el stood His ancient throne,

He lov’d that chosen race;

But now He calls the world His own,

And heathens taste His grace.

6

The British islands are the Lord’s,

There Abraham’s God is known;

While powers and princes, shields and swords,

Submit before His throne.
