He reigns; the Lord
the Savior reigns;
Praise Him in evangelic strains;
Let the whole earth in songs rejoice
And distant islands join their voice.
Deep are His counsels
and unknown
But grace and truth support His throne;
Through gloomy clouds His ways surround
Justice is their eternal ground.
In robes of judgment
lo! He comes
Shakes the wide earth and cleaves the tombs;
Before Him burns devouring fire;
The mountains melt
the seas retire.
His enemies
with sore dismay
Fly from the sight
and shun the day;
Then lift your heads
ye saints on high
And sing
for your redemption’s nigh.
