1 Godrules:there’ssomething to shout over!

On the double, mainlands and islands—celebrate!

2 Bright clouds and storm clouds circle ’round him;

Right and justice anchor his rule.

3 Fire blazes out before him,

Flaming high up the craggy mountains.

4 His lightnings light up the world;

Earth, wide-eyed, trembles in fear.

5 The mountains take one look atGod

And melt, melt like wax before earth’s Lord.

6 The heavens announce that he’ll set everything right,

And everyone will see it happen—glorious!

7-8 All who serve handcrafted gods will be sorry—

And they were so proud of their ragamuffin gods!

On your knees, all you gods—worship him!

And Zion, you listen and take heart!

Daughters of Zion, sing your hearts out:

Godhas done it all, has set everything right.

9 You,God, are High God of the cosmos,

Far, far higher than any of the gods.

10 Godloves all who hate evil,

And those who love him he keeps safe,

Snatches them from the grip of the wicked.

11 Light-seeds are planted in the souls of God’s people,

Joy-seeds are planted in good heart-soil.

12 So, God’s people, shout praise toGod,

Give thanks to our Holy God!
