Hymnal: The Psalter #129 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: The Psalter First Line: Rejoice, ye people, homage give Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, ye people, homage give,
To God with voice of triumph sing;
He rules us in dread majesty,
The great, the universal King.
2 He putteth nations under us
And maketh us triumphant stand;
He giveth us for our heritage
His promised rest, a goodly land.
3 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.
4 Our God is King of all the earth,
With tho'tful heart His praise make known,
O'er all the nations God doth reign,
Exalted on His holy throne.
5 To praise and serve our covenant God
The princes of the earth draw nigh;
All kingly pow'rs belong to Him,
He is exalted, God Most High.
