Great is the Lord: His praise is great

Great is the Lord: his praise is great
on Zion’s mount, his holy place;
the royal city crowns the earth
and shines on all with radiant grace.

2. God is the Tower whose strength was shown
when Satan’s armies threatened harm;
they gathered round, and looked, and ran
like boats before the driving storm.

3. Our ears have heard, our eyes have seen
what God the Lord of hosts has done;
within these walls we celebrate
his steadfast love, his ageless throne.

4. God is the Judge whose mighty name
across the world with praise shall ring;
for his resplendent victories
let Zion shout and Judah sing.

5. God is the King whose kingdom’s power
we see built up on every side;
we tell our children of our God
who will for ever be our guide.
