Ascribe ye strength to God - The mighty God
(Horatius Bonar/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)
The mighty God.
1. Ascribe ye strength to God!
The mighty Lord is he,
the God of majesty,
Jehovah is his name;
o'er all the earth his fame;
ascribe ye strength to God! (PDF - Midi)
2. His strength is in the clouds!
Girded with glorious might,
compassed about with night;
yet light his dwelling-place,
and light in all his ways.
His strength is in the clouds!
3. He rideth on the heavens!
The heaven of heavens is his,
with all its light and bliss;
his are the stars of light,
his is the solemn night.
He rideth on the heavens!
4. Sing loud to God our strength!
Rejoice and praise his name,
rejoice and sound his fame;
rejoice and tell his grace,
rejoice before his face.
Sing loud to God our strength!
5. His kingdom knows no end!
The King of kings is he,
the Lord of lords is he,
the God of gods is he,
the Judge of earth is he.
His kingdom knows no end!
Horatius Bonar, The Song of the New Creation, 1872, 47-48.
