Lyrics

All lands, to God in joy­ful sounds
Aloft your voic­es raise;
Sing forth the hon­or of His name,
And glo­ri­ous make His praise,
And glo­ri­ous make His praise.

Say ye to God, how ter­ri­ble
In all Thy works art Thou!
To Thee Thy foes by Thy great pow­er
Shall be con­strained to bow,
Shall be con­strained to bow.

Yea, all the earth shall wor­ship Thee,
And un­to Thee shall sing;
To Thy great name shall songs of joy
With loud ho­san­nas ring,
With loud ho­san­nas ring.

O come, be­hold the works of God,
His migh­ty do­ings see;
In deal­ing with the sons of men
Most won­der­ful is He,
Most won­der­ful is He.

He led in safe­ty through the flood
The peo­ple of His choice,
He turned the sea to sol­id ground;
In Him let us re­joice,
In Him let us rej­oice.

He rules for­ev­er by His might,
His eyes the na­tions try;
Let not the proud, re­bel­lious ones
Exalt them­selves on high,
Exalt them­selves on high.
