Let God Arise, and by His Might

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 Let God arise, and by His might Let all His foes be put to to flight; But O ye righteous, gladly sing, Exult before your God and King. 2 Jehovah's praises sound abroad, Rejoice before the living God; Prepare the way that He may come And make the desert places bloom. 3 A Father of the fatherless, A Judge of widows in distress, Is God, the God of boundless grace, Who dwells within His holy place. 4 God frees the captive and He sends The blessedness of home and friends, And only those in darkness stay Who will not trust Him and obey. 5 O Zion, 'tis thy God's command That thou in strength securely stand; O God, confirm and strengthen still, Thy purposes in us fulfill. 6 O Thou, whose glorious temple stands In Zion, famed through heathen lands, Kings shall Thy power and glory see, And bring their presents unto Thee. 7 Thou wilt rebuke the fierce and strong Who hate the right and choose the wrong, And scatter those who peace abhor, The nations that delight in war. 8 The heathen princes yet shall flee From idols and return to Thee; Earth's sinful and benighted lands To God shall soon stretch out their hands.

Anonymous

Author of "Let God Arise, and by His Might" in The Cyber Hymnal In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
