Ascribe to the Lord our God,
Ascribe to Him glory, might.
Ascribe to the Lord the glory due His name
And worship Him aright.
Come worship in the splendor of holiness.
The voice of the Lord is heard;
The Lord thunders o’er the sea.
The voice of the Lord is powerful and strong;
God speaks with majesty.
We hear Your voice and worship in holiness.
God’s voice breaks the cedars tall;
He strips all the forests bare.
The mountains He shakes; they skip just like a calf.
His glory all declare.
We hear Your voice and worship in holiness.
The voice of the Lord does strike
With flashes of lightning bright.
The voice of the Lord does shake the desert sands;
The deer give birth in fright.
We hear Your voice and worship in holiness.
The Lord o’er the flood did reign;
As King, He’s fore’er enthroned.
The Lord gives His people strength for every day;
With peace, they’re blessed and crowned.
You’ve blessed us, Lord; we worship in holiness.
