47 (2) | Psalm 47 Version 2 | 7 7. 7 7 | |
GLORIOUS is the Lord Most High, Awesome is His majesty; He His sovereign sway maintains, King o’er all the earth He reigns. |
|||
2 | Jesus is gone up on high, Takes His seat above the sky: Shout the angel-choirs aloud, Echoing to the trump of God. |
||
3 | Sons of earth the triumph join: Praise Him with the host divine; Emulate the heavenly powers; Their victorious Lord is ours. |
||
4 | Power is all to Jesus given, Power o’er hell, and earth, and Heaven; Power He now to us imparts; Praise Him with believing hearts. |
||
5 | Wonderful in saving power, Him let all our hearts adore; Earth and Heaven repeat the cry ‘Glory be to God Most High!’ |
