He reigns! The Lord our Savior reigns

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: In Melody and Songs #49 (2014) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: He reigns! The Lord our Savior reigns! Praise him in evangelic strains; let all the earth in songs rejoice and distant islands join their voice. In robes of judgment, lo, he comes! He shakes the earth, and cleaves the tombs; before him burns devouring fire, the mountains melt, the seas retire. Deep are his counsels, long unknown; his grace and truth support his throne; rejoice, ye righteous, and record the sacred honors of our Lord. Scripture: Psalm 97 Languages: English Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS

He reigns; the Lord, the Savior reigns!

Hymnal: Dr. Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #208a (1790) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 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. 2 Deep are his counsels and unknown; But grace and truth support his throne; Tho' gloomy clouds his ways surround, Justice is their eternal ground. 3 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. 4 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. Scripture: Psalm 97:1-5 Languages: English
