Your throne, O God, is for ever
You shall lose your rule, reign never
Alleluia, Alleluia!
The sceptre of your kingdom is
Sceptre of righteousness, 'tis bliss
In your royal state we this this
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia
Psalm 45 v.13
The king's daughter, all glorious
'Tis the Bride of Christ, even us
Alleluia, Alleluia!
We His church, and he the Bridegroom
let every heart prepare Him room
He Lord arisen from the tomb
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
Psalm 46 v.1-2
The Lord god our strength, refuge be
A very present help is He

In times of trouble on Him call
Sincere ones He will help them all
Trusting in Him we shall not fall
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!

Psalm 48 v.1-2
Great the LORD, greatly to be praised
Praises, thanks to Him be upraised
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Mount Zion is His dwelling fair
We assured His residence there
In His Temple, none can compare
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
Psalm 48 v.14
This God our God for evermore
Our faith secure, confident, sure
Alleluia, Alleluia!
He be our guided e'en unto death
Until we take our final breath
His word true, each word that He saith
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!

a well composed hymn poem for sure.... N
Thanks N. You liking that old 8's metre?
something tickled my fancy....
You can't beat a good metre - can you substitute 'Woof, Woof, Woof' for Alleluia - and make Fido's day?
Yes lol, he will have plenty of Woofs then!
Alleluia indeed Orchi.
Thanks Gold.
