Tune: Camberwell
(one tune to 'At the name of Jesus')
Psalm 96 v.10-13 and Psalm 97 v.1-2
**************
Say among the nations
To their daughters, sons
That the Lord reigns, the world
Is to us unfurled
It be firm established
Just as he has wished
Shall not be moved, firm stands
To the farthest lands
He shall judge the people
With righteousness all
Let the heavens rejoice
Praise Him with one voice
And let the earth be glad
Hearts no longer sad
Let the sea roar, fulness
Therein shall He bless
Let the fields be joyful
That within them, all
Then shall all the trees praise
Him, woods worship raise
All creations joins to
Extol Him anew
He comes to judge rightly
With truth, equity
The Lord reigns, let the earth
Give to Him His worth
And rejoice, let many
Isles be glad, so be
Clouds and darkness are round
About him, there found
Righteousness, judgement, they
From His throne alway

Yes lol. Thanks N. I've never seen any rulers falling from the sky. Would that be reigning or raining?!
The soon and coming King, that is Now and arriving.
