Spirit of the Psalms
Psalm 97
Harriett Auber
Jehovah reigns! O earth, rejoice;
Ye ransom'd isles, exalt your voice;
Make every hill and vale around
Responsive to the weleome sound.
2 Though far removed from mortal eye,
He reigns in glorious majesty;
Himself in awful clouds conceal'd,
His truth, His justice stands reveal'd.
3 Yes, Jesus reigns! the gospel's light
Beams with mild radiance on our sight,
And fallen man, redeem'd, forgiven,
May lift his heart, his hopes to heaven.
4 Oh, then, obey His sacred Word,
All ye who love and fear the Lord;
Go, publish through His wide domains
The glorious truth, Jehovah reigns!
Harriett Auber, 1829.
