Oh Lord, I have heard the report about You and I fear
Revive Your work in the midst of the years
In wrath remember compassion and love
His splendor and majesty covers the heavens
And the earth is full of His praise
His brightness is like the sunlight
Bright rays are flashing from His hand
And there in the sunlike splendor
Is the hiding place of His power
He stood and measured the earth
He looked and startled the nations
The mountains saw Him and trembled
The ancient hills bowed low and collapsed
The eternal mountains were shattered
His ways are eternal
He marches on forever
Before Him goes the pestilence
And the burning plague of condemnation follows at His feet
I heard and my whole inner self trembled
My lips quivered at the sound
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord
I will shout in joy in the God of my salvation!
His brightness is like the sunlight
Bright rays are flashing from His hand
And there in the sunlike splendor
Is the hiding place of His power
You trampled on the surge of many waters
The downpour of waters swept by
In indignation You marched through the earth
In anger You trampled and threshed the nations
You went forth for the salvation of Your people
You struck the head from the house of the wicked
The Sovereign Lord is my strength!
His brightness is like the sunlight
Bright rays are flashing from His hand
And there in the sunlike splendor
Is the hiding place of His power
