The Lord reigns as king, robed in majesty; royalty the Lord has for robe and girdle. He it was that founded the solid earth, to abide immovable.

Firm stood thy throne ere ever the world began; from all eternity, thou art.

Loud the rivers echo, Lord, loud the rivers echo, crashing down in flood.

Magnificent the roar of eddying waters; magnificent the sea’s rage; magnificent above these, the Lord reigns in heaven.

How faithful, Lord, are thy promises! Holy is thy house, and must needs be holy until the end of time.
