- Verse 1
- The mighty God, Jehovah speaks
- And calls the earth from sea to sea;
- From beauteous Zion God shines forth,
- He comes and will not silent be;
- Devouring flame before Him goes,
- And dark the tempest round Him grows.
- Verse 2
- He calls aloud to heav’n and earth
- That He may justly judge His own;
My chosen saints together bring
Who sacrifice to Me alone;
- The heav’ns His righteousness declare,
- For God Himself as Judge is there.
- Verse 3
Hear, O my people, I will speak,
Against thee I will testify;
Give ear to me, O Israel,
For God, thy covenant God, am I;
I do not spurn thy sacrifice,
Thy off’rings are before My eyes.
- Verse 4
I will receive from out thy fold
No off’ring for My holy shrine;
The cattle on a thousand hills
And all the forest beasts are Mine;
Each mountain bird to Me is known,
whatever roams the field I own.
- Verse 5
Behold, if I should hungry grow,
I would not tell My need to thee,
Fro all the world itself is Mine,
And all its wealth belongs to Me;
Why should I aught of thee receive,
My thirst or hunger to relieve?
- Verse 6
Bring thou to God the gift of thanks,
And pay thy vows to God most High;
Call ye upon My holy Name
In days when sore distress is nigh;
Deliverance I will send to thee,
And praises thou shalt give to Me.
