Psalm 97

1. The LORD our God is King! / O earth, rejoice in Him!  / All islands, coasts, and ocean, / Break forth in glad devotion. / Dark clouds of secrecy / Enfold His majesty. / The pillars of His throne  / Are righteousness alone / And perfect equity.

2. Consuming flames deploy / Before Him, to destroy / His foemen round about Him / Who vainly seek to flout Him. / His lightning bolts, when hurled, / Enlighten all the world; / Earth sees and quakes with fear  / To see His wrath appear / And thunderous clouds unfurled.

3. The hills, as wax by fire, / All melt before His ire, / When God on His creation / Pours flaming indignation. / The heavens in awe express / His perfect righteousness. / Let all the nations see / His glorious majesty, / His royal power confess. / Dewey Westra, 1931; rev.
