Author: Isaac Watts [More Titles by Watts]

Psalm 93:1. 1st Metre. As 100th Psalm
The eternal and sovereign God.

Jehovah reigns; he dwells in light,
Girded with majesty and might:
The world created by his hands
Still on its first foundation stands.

But ere this spacious world was made,
Or had its first foundations laid,
Thy throne eternal ages stood,
Thyself the ever-living God.

Like floods the angry nations rise
And aim their rage against the skies;
Vain floods that aim their rage so high!
At thy rebuke the billows die.

For ever shall thy throne endure;
Thy promise stands for ever sure;
And everlasting holiness
Becomes the dwellings of thy grace.

[The end]
Isaac Watts's poem: Psalm 93:1 1st Metre [Jehovah Reigns; He Dwells In Light]
