The praises of Thy wonders, Lord, The heavens shall express; And in the congregation Of saints Thy faithfulness. Thou hast an arm that's full of power; Thy hand is great in might; And Thy right hand exceedingly Exalted is in height. Justice and judgment of Thy throne Are made the dwelling place; Mercy, accompanied with truth, Shall go before Thy face. O greatly blest the people are The joyful sound that know; In brightness of Thy face, O Lord, They ever on shall go. Because the glory of their strength Doth only stand in Thee; And in Thy favor shall our horn And power exalted be. For God is our defense; and He To us doth safety bring; The Holy One of Israel Is our almighty King.
