The Lord in Zion Ever Reigns

The Lord in Zi­on ev­er reigns

And o’er her holds His guard­ian hand;

Her wor­ship and her laws main­tains

Which

like Him­self

un­moved shall stand.

O come

be­hold what He has done

Whom we de­light to call our Lord;

The vic­to­ries which His arm has won;

And faith­ful­ly His deeds re­cord.

He mak­eth war on earth to cease;

He breaks the bow

He cuts the dart

The cha­ri­ot burns; and sheds His peace

O’er ev­ery nation

ev­ery heart.

Be still

and hear the Lord pro­claim—

I will above the hea­then rise;

O’er all the earth ex­alt My name

And spread My tri­umphs through the skies.
