A Hymn of God's Words
Almighty God Reigns as King
I
How beautiful!
His feet are on the Mount of Olives.
Listen, we watchmen
are singing loud together,
for God has returned to Zion.
We've seen
the desolation of Jerusalem.
Now we sing of joy for God's comforts
and His salvation of Jerusalem.
Before all nations,
God shows His holy arm,
He appears as He truly is.
People on the earth
all see God's salvation.
Your great love has held us fast.
Your sacred word
pierces us through and through.
Almighty God, thanks be to You,
praise unto You!
Father everlasting, Prince of Peace,
our God reigns as King over all!
II
Out from the throne of Almighty God,
the seven Spirits are sent to
churches everywhere,
Your mysteries are revealed.
You rule on Your throne of glory.
With justice and righteousness,
You strengthen Your kingdom.
All nations bow down before You.
Almighty God,
He appears as He truly is.
People on the earth
all see God's salvation.
Your great love has held us fast.
Your sacred word
pierces us through and through.
Almighty God, thanks be to You,
praise unto You!
Father everlasting, Prince of Peace,
our God reigns as King over all!
III
Darkness shrouds all lands,
covers all people.
But God You appear
and shine Your light upon us,
Your glory in us manifests.
All nations and all kings
come to Your light.
You raise eyes to look about You.
Your sons are getting
around You from afar.
Your daughters come too,
borne in Your arms.
You lead us forward
on the road to Your kingdom.
People on the earth
all see God's salvation.
Your great love has held us fast.
Your sacred word
pierces us through and through.
Almighty God, thanks be to You,
praise unto You!
Father everlasting, Prince of Peace,
our God reigns as King over all!
IV
With a heart sincere,
serene, and faithful,
we look up to You,
bear witness to You,
raise You up, sing praise to You.
We construct ourselves
in united harmony.
May You make us
ones pleasing to You,
fit to be used by You.
May Your will be carried out on earth,
without being stopped by any force.
V
You've loosed the girdle of the kings,
that the gates of their cities
shall be open
and nevermore be shut to You.
For Your light of glory
has come shining forth.
Almighty God, thanks be to You,
praise unto You!
Father everlasting, Prince of Peace,
our God reigns as King!
Almighty God, thanks be to You,
praise unto You!
Father everlasting, Prince of Peace,
our God reigns as King over all!
