Overarching Omnipotence

Tune: St Anne

(\'O God our help in ages past\')

Psalm 76

*********

In Judah is God known, His name

Is great, it e\'er the same

And too in Israel, [Jeru]Salem be

His tabernacle, see

 

For in [Mount] Zion is His dwelling*

He be the Lord and King

There He does break weapons of war

They shall learn it no more

 

You Lord more glorious, excel

You above mountains, tell

We of your greatness and your might

Enemies flee your sight

 

You, only you, are to be feared

Who have to us appeared

Who may stand before you when you

Are angry, none can do

 

You caused your judgements to be heared

From heaven, earth it feared

And it was still, when God arose

To save meek from their foes

 

Surely the wrath of man shall praise

You, and shall worship raise

And the remainder of wrath shall

You restrain fair and well

 

Here bring your vows and presents to

The LORD, He God to you

He awesome to all here below

And heavenly hosts too know
