Psalm 47

Psalter Hymnal, 1987

1. Nations, clap your hands; Shout with joy, you lands!
   Awesome is the LORD; Spread his fame abroad
   He rules every land With a mighty hand.
   God brings nations low; He subdues each foe.
   From his mighty throne God protects his own.
   Our inheritance Is our sure defense.
   
2. God goes up on high With a joyful cry,
   With a mighty shout; People sing it out!
   Let your voices bring Praises to our King.
   Praise him with a song; Praise with heart and tongue;
   Praise with every skill; Praise with mind and will.
   God rules all the earth; Magnify his worth.
   
3. God reigns over all Rulers great and small.
   Leaders of the world, Servants of the LORD,
   Rally round his throne; He is God alone.
   Sing before him now, In his presence bow.
   God of Abraham! God of every land!
   Worship and adore God forevermore.
