Trembling soul, beset by fears,
“For the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth” Rev. 19:6
1.
Trembling soul, beset by fears,
“Thy God reigneth!”
Look above and dry thy tears:
“Thy God reigneth!”
Though thy foes with pow’r assail,
Naught against thee shall prevail;
Trust in him, he’ll never fail:
“Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!”
2.
Join, ye saints, the truth proclaim,
“Thy God reigneth!”
Shout it forth with glad acclaim,
“Thy God reigneth!”
Zion, wake! the morn is nigh,
See it break from yonder sky;
Loud and clear the watchmen cry:
“Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!”
3.
Church of Christ, awake, awake!
“Thy God reigneth!”
Forward, then, fresh courage take:
“Thy God reigneth!”
Soon, descending from his throne,
He shall claim thee for his own;
Sin shall then be overthrown:
“Thy God reigneth! Thy God reigneth!”
Amen
