God hath ascended with a shout, Jehovah with the trumpet's sound; Sing praise to God our King, sing praise, Yes, let His glorious praise abound.

Our God is King of all the earth, With thoughtful heart His praise make known, O'er all the nations God doth reign, Exalted on His holy throne.

Verse 5

To praise and serve our covenant God The princes of the earth draw nigh; All kingly powers belong to Him, He is exalted, God Most High.
